Gardening tools passed around (6)
I believe the answer is:
spades
'gardening tools' is the definition.
'spades' can be an answer for 'tools' (spade is a kind of tool). I am not sure about the 'gardening' bit.
'passed around' is the wordplay.
'around' indicates an anagram.
'passed' anagrammed gives 'SPADES'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for spades that I've seen before include "Passed around with diggers" , "Garden tools and card suit" , "Black suit" , "Suit in pack of cards" , "Implements for a suit" .)
