I'm struggling on the 1d and I think its carples an anagram of parcels but the correct spelling is carpels! or have i got something wrong? Please help

If you put in the full clue, the number of letters and the letters you have, I'm sure someone will try to help you.

[Roseh]

thanks, the full clue is 'plant parts discovered in unwrapped parcels c?r?l?s

[puzzled54]

it is carpels, but i can't remember the other clues now - what is the other answer that doesn't fit?

[Roseh]

11a is chalky rock accretes around centre of Slough - i have calcareous - which doesn't fit with the 'l'

[ripvanwinkle]

11 across is cretaceous and 1 down is carpels

[ladyalex]

11a cretaceous anagram of accrete and ou middle of slough

[puzzled54]

answer is an anagram of accretes and ou (centre od slough)

[Dinkypuzzled]

cretaceous (accretes+ou)
