Got to the depth of the fruit plot (7)
I believe the answer is:
plumbed
'got to the depth of' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'fruit plot' is the wordplay.
'fruit' becomes 'plum' (plum is a kind of fruit).
'plot' becomes 'bed' (a plot of land).
'plum'+'bed'='PLUMBED'
'the' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
