no TT rue
TT in the middle relates to Teetotal or dry
Rue being the evergreen shrub ?
Absolutely so
Question Author
Thanks, all of you. No gardiner, I didn't know Rue was a shrub. Just thought it meant 'regret'!
Where is the definition?
Look in Wikipaedia.
I mean where is the definition in the clue that leads to the answer 'Not True' ?
No = not true.
No = not true but the word 'no' is also needed for the answer
The clue was incorrectly given by the questioner who omitted the word False -

No evergreen shrub keeps dry ? False (3,4)
Ahh - thanks toalisi that makes more sense.
Thanks toalisi.

I thought that the double use of 'No' was very odd.

My mistake, I didn't give the whole clue. Sorry.
