Bloom that may be bearded (4)
I believe the answer is:
iris
'bloom that may be bearded' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for iris that I've seen before include "bit of a looker" , "Eye part or attractive flower" , "Lily" , "Camera diaphragm" , "In the middle of which pupil is opening" .)
