Got up to see a flower (4)
I believe the answer is:
rose
This clue is a double definition.
'got up' is the first definition.
(past tense of 'raise')
'flower' is the second definition.
(I know that rose is a flower)
'to see a' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for rose that I've seen before include "sprang up" , "Popular flower" , "reached for the skies" , "Prickly bush" , "Perforated cap; reddish colour" .)
