Thorny plant — pipe (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

briar

This clue is a double definition.

'thorny plant' is the first definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'pipe' is the second definition.
(I know that briar is a type of pipe)

(Other definitions for briar that I've seen before include "Tobacco pipe" , "Prickly wooden stem" , "Prickly scrambling shrub" , "that one may smoke" , "Wild rose bush" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
