Firework plant (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rocket

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'firework' is the first definition.
(I know that rocket is a firework)

'plant' is the second definition.
(I know that rocket is a type of herb)

(Other definitions for rocket that I've seen before include "Salad vegetable" , "Firework and lettuce" , "Self-propelled firework or missile" , "Go up very quickly" , "Salad plant; missile" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Telegraph.
