habitat

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

'a place for animals and plants' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'tabitha makes' is the wordplay.
'makes' indicates anagramming the letters.
'tabitha' is an anagram of 'HABITAT'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for habitat that I've seen before include "British retailer" , "Home ground of an animal" , "Usual abode" , "Where something's usually found" , "Animal's natural home" .)
