Neat tree (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

spruce

This clue is a double definition.

'neat' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'tree' is the second definition.
(spruce is a kind of tree)

(Other definitions for spruce that I've seen before include "Coniferous tree" , "Evergreen pyramid-shaped tree" , "wood" , "Smart and tidy - tree" , "Well-dressed" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express, The Irish Times and The Times.
