Small shoot or twig (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sprig

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'small shoot' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'twig' is the second definition.
(I know that twig can be written as sprig)

(Other definitions for sprig that I've seen before include "Stem of holly, for example" , "Small twig" , "Young shoot" , "Youth" , "A tack; a little shoot" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
