Clove pink (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

carnation

'clove pink' is the definition.
(synonyms)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for carnation that I've seen before include "Anoint car with the strange flower" , "Flower suitable for buttonhole ..." , "Not in a car (anag) - plant" , "Oscar Wilde wore a green one" , "Pink - garden flower" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent, The Mirror and the Evening Standard.
