Got up like a flower (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

Which length description are you looking for?:

4

5

arose

'got up' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'a flower' is the wordplay.
'flower' becomes 'rose' (I've seen this in other clues).
'a'+'rose'='AROSE'

'like' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for arose that I've seen before include "stemmed" , "Became apparent" , "Got out of bed" , "appeared" , "Cropped up" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
