Hollow stem of wood (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cane

'hollow stem of wood' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for cane that I've seen before include "Type of sugar; beat" , "Slender support, for 32 across say" , "Bamboo, sugar, stem" , "Sugar plant" , "A light rod once used for punishment" .)

I've seen this clue in the Irish Times (Simplex) and The Irish Times.
