Revised lists for retailers in a growing trade (8)
I believe the answer is:
florists
'retailers in a growing trade' is the definition.
Although both the answer and definition are plural nouns, I don't understand how they can define each other.
'revised lists for' is the wordplay.
'revised' indicates an anagram.
'lists'+'for'='listsfor'
'listsfor' with letters rearranged gives 'FLORISTS'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for florists that I've seen before include "Flower sellers" , "Flower shops" , "Slits for blooming sellers" , "They grow and sell flowers" .)
