Godparents left out pots in cultivated ground (6)
I believe the answer is:
garden
This clue could be a double definition.
'godparents left' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe you can see a link between them that I don't see?
'out pots in cultivated ground' is the second definition.
Although both the answer and definition are singular nouns, I can't understand how they can define each other.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for garden that I've seen before include "Plot of ground for plants" , "Where, eg, flowers are grown" , "Ranged (anag.)" , "Land round house" , "Flower-plot" .)
