With paper around, secures floral decorations (8)
I believe the answer is:
garlands
'decorations' is the definition.
(garland is a kind of decoration)
'with paper around secures floral' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'with' could be 'and' and 'and' is found within the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for garlands that I've seen before include "flower arrangements" , "Circular bands of flowers" , "Wreaths of flowers" , "Festive wreaths" .)
