Crossword Genius

A flower girl (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

violet

I believe this is a double definition.

'a flower' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'girl' is the second definition.

(Other definitions for violet that I've seen before include "Colour midway between red and blue" , "Rainbow colour; flower" , "Five-petalled flower" , "Bluish-purple colour as of pretty flower" , "Herbaceous flower" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
