Dry and withered (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sere

'dry and withered' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for sere that I've seen before include "Dried up, withered" , "'Dried-up, shrivelled (4)'" , "Dry, withered" , "Erse (anag.); withered (literary)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
