Fruit; time (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

date

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'fruit' is the first definition.
(I know that Date is a type of edible fruit)

'time' is the second definition.
(I know that time can be written as date)

(Other definitions for date that I've seen before include "Tropical fruit" , "Specified day" , "escort" , "Time - fruit - girlfriend" , "Edible fruit with a long woody seed" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
