Fungal growth (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

mould

'fungal growth' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for mould that I've seen before include "Crumbly soil" , "die?" , "Furry fungus" , "Cause of discoloration" , "Mildew" .)

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