Where Rosemary and Iris may go until bedtime? (7,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

potting shed

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

'where rosemary and iris' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'go until bedtime?' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'go' could be 'ting' (tinging is a kind of going) and 'ting' is found within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'may' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?
