Sugar plant (4)

Ross

I think it could be either:

cane

beet

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

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for cane that I've seen before include "Old school punishment" , "Sugar plant" , "Stem of palm" , "Eg, bamboo; punish" , "Hollow jointed stem of, say, bamboo (4)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun, The Mirror and the Evening Standard.
