I believe the answer is:

elder

(Other definitions for elder that I've seen before include "More aged; tree" , "White-flowered tree" , "Earlier born" , "Shrub with white flowers and berrylike fruit" , "Woody shrub - used for wine, tea or cordial" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sunday Times and The Times.
