Mephisto 2757 - Don Manley

This was one of the most difficult Mephistos for some time for me, however there's a couple of references that I did know know at all and needed to consult the interwebs to find the last few. Two of the three-letter answers were particularly thorny.

I can't quite parse the wordplay for one (6 across), but with only one unchecked letter I'm pretty sure I have the correct grid entry.

Away we go...

Across
1	TALAK: A in TALK
6	ACANTH: This is the one I can't seem to unravel - AC is bill. It could then be A + NTH being something doubly pruned or ANTH as the doubly pruned part. Botany is my weak point, but I can't find a plant to fit. Hopefully the hive mind will let me know what I'm missing
