Got up in pink (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rose

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'got up' is the first definition.
(past tense of 'raise')

'pink' is the second definition.
(colour)

'in' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for rose that I've seen before include "'A . . . . by any other name smells as sweet'" , "Wine colour; plant" , "A flower; watering-can sprayer" , "vacated bed" , "Prickly garden plant" .)

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