Arrange, draw and plot a growth facility (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

seedbed

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

'a growth facility' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?

'arrange draw and plot' is the wordplay.
'arrange draw' becomes 'seed' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'plot' becomes 'bed' (a plot of land).
'seed'+'bed'='SEEDBED'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for seedbed that I've seen before include "Where plants are germinated" , "growing area?" , "Plot where young plants develop" .)
