Daughter prods not entirely fragrant plant (5)
I believe the answer is:
swede
'plant' is the definition.
(swede is a kind of plant)
'daughter prods not entirely fragrant' is the wordplay.
'daughter' becomes 'd' (genealogical abbreviation).
'prods' means one lot of letters goes inside another (prod can mean to poke a hole into something).
'not entirely' means to remove the last letter (most but not all of the word).
'fragrant' becomes 'sweet' (similar in meaning).
'sweet' with its final letter taken away is 'swee'.
'd' placed within 'swee' is 'SWEDE'.
(Other definitions for swede that I've seen before include "Scandinavian; root veg." , "Person like Strindberg" , "Large root vegetable" , "Scandinavian national" , "N European" .)
