Love to have wide choice of fruit (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oranges

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

'fruit' is the definition.
(oranges are a type of fruit)

'love to have wide choice' is the wordplay.
'love' becomes 'o' (love means zero in tennis).
'to have' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'wide choice' becomes 'ranges' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'o'+'ranges'='ORANGES'

'of' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for oranges that I've seen before include "'Mandarins, say (7)'" , "Go snare these fruits" , "a zesty lot" , "Citrus fruits" , "See 8" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
