Tree from which rays come? (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sycamore

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

'tree' is the definition.
(I know that sycamore is a type of tree)

'which rays come?' is the wordplay.
'rays come' anagrams to 'SYCAMORE'.
Though, I am not clear how this is indicated.

'from' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sycamore that I've seen before include "The tree is strangely so creamy" , "Great maple tree" , "Type of maple tree" , "European maple" , "Eurasian maple-tree" .)
