Honey -- might this attract bees? (5)
I believe the answer is:
petal
I believe this is a double definition.
'honey' is the first definition.
(both are terms of endearment)
'might this attract bees?' is the second definition.
(Other definitions for petal that I've seen before include "Corolla leaf" , "Part of a plant's perianth that is usually brightly coloured" , "A bit of a bloomer" , "Bloom's part" , "Brightly-coloured part of flower" .)
