Bitter plant? How singular! (4)
I believe the answer is:
aloe
'bitter plant?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for aloe that I've seen before include "shrub" , "has a bitter taste" , "Bitter fruit" , "Succulent plant (4) 5532" , "Flower, maybe vera" .)
