Plant poorly watered (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tarweed

'plant' is the definition.
(tarweed is a kind of plant)

'poorly watered' is the wordplay.
'poorly' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen this in other clues).
'watered' anagrammed gives 'TARWEED'.

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
