Shoots for prizes (4)
I believe the answer is:
pots
This might be a double definition.
'shoots' is the first definition.
The answer and definition can be both plants as well as being plural nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?
'prizes' is the second definition.
The answer and definition can be both man-made objects as well as being plural nouns.
Perhaps you can see a link between them that I can't see?
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for pots that I've seen before include "earthenware here" , "Cooking utensils" , "Containers; oodles" , "Stop (anag.)" , "Gets (a ball) into pocket" .)
