Horticulturist (8)

I believe the answer is:

gardener

'horticulturist' is the definition.
(gardener is a kind of horticulturist)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for gardener that I've seen before include "Tender of plants" , "Garnered by worker on cultivated ground" , "Horticulturist" , "Cultivator" , "One grows" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, the Thinks.com and The Telegraph.
