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

'lost again in place describing leaves of a particular type' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.

'lost again in place' is the wordplay.
'lost' indicates an anagram.
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'place' becomes 'pl' (abbreviation used in postal addresses).
'again' is an anagram of 'agina'.
'agina' placed within 'pl' is 'PAGINAL'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for paginal that I've seen is " of leaves".)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
