Send flower to support tense husband (6)

I believe the answer is:

thrill

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'send' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'flower to support tense husband' is the wordplay.
'flower' becomes 'rill' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'to support' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other) (in a down clue, some letters hold up others).
'tense' becomes 't' (abbreviation used in many dictionaries).
'husband' becomes 'h' (abbreviation).
't'+'h'='th'
'rill' put after 'th' is 'THRILL'.

(Other definitions for thrill that I've seen before include "Sudden rush of pleasure" , "D. W. _, pioneer US film director; rigs fifth (anag.)" , "bring a tingle of excitement" , "Excited sensation" , "Sudden sensation of excitement" .)
