pots

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

This could be a double definition.

'shoots' is the first definition.
The definition and answer can be both plants as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?

'for trophies' is the second definition.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for pots that I've seen before include "Preserves" , "Containers; oodles" , "Gets (a ball) into pocket" , "Ceramics; pockets (ball)" , "earthenware here" .)
