Hormone from greens? Too weird (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oestrogen

'hormone' is the definition.
(I know that oestrogen is a type of hormone)

'greens? too weird' is the wordplay.
'weird' indicates an anagram.
'greens'+'too'='greenstoo'
'greenstoo' with letters rearranged gives 'OESTROGEN'.

'from' is the link.

(Another definition for oestrogen that I've seen is " Hormone".)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
