In today's crossword puzzle, we have a clue that reads, "Cultivate head of dogwood the first lady cut off." The answer to this clue is "DEVELOP."
Let's break down the clue to understand why "DEVELOP" is the correct answer:
- The clue starts with "Cultivate," which means to tend or nurture.
- Next, we have "head of dogwood." Here, "head" refers to the first letter of the word "dogwood," which is "D." Therefore, we have the letter "D."
