Cone bearers (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pines

'cone bearers' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for pines that I've seen before include "Coniferous trees" , "Longs for evergreen trees" , "Yearns for evergreen trees?" , "Yearns for the conifers" , "Longs for or languishes" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
