Natural cover in garden originally (3,4)
I believe the answer is:
fig leaf
This clue might be a double definition.
'natural cover' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'garden originally' is the second definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
