Saving time, scan each flower (5,3)
I believe the answer is:
sweet pea
'flower' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'saving time scan each' is the wordplay.
'saving' indicates putting letters inside.
'time' becomes 't' (abbreviation).
'scan each' becomes 'sweepea' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
't' inserted within 'sweepea' is 'SWEET PEA'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for sweet pea that I've seen before include "Saccaharine legume for favourite flower" , "Climbing garden plant with pastel flowers" , "Climbing plant with butterfly-shaped flowers" , "Climbing plant with pastel-coloured flowers" , "Celestial source of fluctuating radio waves" .)
