Variety of trees put in the soil again (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

reset

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

'in the soil again' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'variety of trees' is the wordplay.
'variety of' is an anagram indicator.
'trees' with letters rearranged gives 'RESET'.

'put' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for reset that I've seen before include "Steer so as to fix broken bone" , "Adjust (eg clock, tuning)" , "Restore to the initial readings" , "Replace, resettle or put back again" , "Replant" .)
