Trim conifer (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

spruce

I believe this is a double definition.

'trim' is the first definition.
(synonyms)

'conifer' is the second definition.
(I know that spruce is a type of conifer)

(Other definitions for spruce that I've seen before include "Well-groomed - tree" , "Elegant" , "wood" , "Tidy - fir" , "Evergreen pyramid-shaped trees" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times and The Telegraph.
