Pull out of the ground (6)
I believe the answer is:
uproot
'pull out of the ground' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for uproot that I've seen before include "Pull (plant) out of soil" , "Pull (plant) out of earth" , "Move forcibly" , "Extirpate" , "Remove from soil" .)
