Hastily shift marsh plant (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rush

This clue is a double definition.

'hastily shift' is the first definition.
(to rush is to move hastily)

'marsh plant' is the second definition.
(I know that rush is a type of marsh plant)

(Other definitions for rush that I've seen before include "High" , "Water plant; hurry" , "Traffic is busiest at this hour" , "plant developing on shore" , "Race" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
