Man's between dry lake's shores to see plant (7)
I believe the answer is:
thistle
'plant' is the definition.
(type of plant)
'man's between dry lake's shores' is the wordplay.
'man's' becomes 'his' (belonging to a man).
'between' indicates putting letters inside.
'dry' becomes 'tt' (abbreviation for teetotal).
'lake's shores' becomes 'le' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'his' inserted inside 'tt' is 'thist'.
'thist'+'le'='THISTLE'
'to see' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for thistle that I've seen before include "Scottish flower" , "Scottish national emblem" , "The list includes Scottish emblem" , "Lithest sort of spiky plant" , "Scotland's flower" .)
