Tree (5)

'tree' is the definition.
(elder is a kind of tree)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for elder that I've seen before include "Tribal advisor" , "Senior - church official" , "Older person - one's senior" , "Tree; of greater age" , "Senior churchman - shrub" .)

I've seen this clue in the New York Times, The Sun, The Mirror, The Times, the Evening Standard, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Independent and The Telegraph.
