sorry to be a nuisance on Christmas Eve but if I don't complete crossword it will spoil my Christmas!
29a Water bird hides in such extraordinary plants (8)
?a?i???s

Hi Gramps - Merry Christmas
Are you sure of your letters? I think it ought to be an anagram of "such" around a water bird (rail, perhaps?), but I can't find anything to fit.

What is the other crosser (if there is one)?

Hibiscus

Such + Ibis

could it be hibiscus?
anag of such with ibis.

Many thanks, Trevor, Mamma and Chrise. 21d was spelt incorrectly. I can finish and get back to my Scotch and mince pies.
A Very Merry Christmas to you all and good solving for 2015.

you too gramps.
