Apple tree! (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oak

I believe this is a double definition.

'apple' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'tree' is the second definition.
(I know that oak is a type of Fagaceae)

(Other definitions for oak that I've seen before include "Nose of certain wines" , "From little acorns does it grow" , "Traditional British tree" , "Grown acorn" , "Acorns are its fruit" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
