Carmine (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

red

'carmine' is the definition.
(I know that carmine can be written as red)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for red that I've seen before include "Bloodshot" , "Florid" , "Blushing" , "River, its source in the US, flowing north to empty into L Winnipeg" , "Scarlet or vermilion" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press and the King Feature Syndicate.
