Leaf making woman at home (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lilypad

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'leaf' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether it can be defined by this definition.

'woman at home' is the wordplay.
'woman' becomes 'lily' ().
'at' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'home' becomes 'pad' (pad can mean someone's home).
'lily'+'pad'='LILYPAD'

'making' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for lilypad that I've seen is " Leaf (on which frog may float?)".)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
