Georgia right to come down for some flowers (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

garland

'some flowers' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'georgia right to come down' is the wordplay.
'georgia' becomes 'GA' (abbreviation).
'right' becomes 'r' (abbreviation).
'to come down' becomes 'land' (to land is to come down after flying).
'ga'+'r'+'land'='GARLAND'

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for garland that I've seen before include "Circular band of flowers" , "Decorative wreath" , "Floral tribute" , "Floral wreath" , "Wreath - festoon" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
