Anything but scruffy wood? (6)
I believe the answer is:
spruce
'wood?' is the definition.
(I know that spruce is a type of wood)
I don't understand the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for spruce that I've seen before include "ornamental tree" , "Natty as a tree" , "tree with needle-like leaves" , "thing for fairy to be on top of?" , "One [TYPE OF TREE]" .)
