Crossword Genius

She possibly garnered what she grew (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gardener

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'she' is the definition.
Both the answer and definition are singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'garnered what she grew' is the wordplay.
'garnered' anagrams to 'GARDENER'.
However, I am not sure how this is indicated.

'possibly' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for gardener that I've seen before include "Plant and veg grower" , "Tender of plants" , "Horticulturist" , "Garnered by worker on cultivated ground" , "Jesus was mistaken for" .)
