Plant workers going north stuck in possible suitable route? (7)
I believe the answer is:
anemone
'plant' is the definition.
(anemone is a kind of plant)
'workers going north stuck in possible suitable route?' is the wordplay.
'workers' becomes 'men' (men can mean staff or employees).
'going north' says the letters should be written in reverse.
'stuck in' indicates putting letters inside.
'possible suitable route?' becomes 'aone' (I can't explain this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'men' back-to-front is 'nem'.
'nem' placed within 'aone' is 'ANEMONE'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for anemone that I've seen before include "Colourful plant of buttercup family" , "Plant; marine creature" , "Sea creature, also flower" , "Flowering plant - mean one (anag)" , "Name one strange flower" .)
