In porch I discovered plant (6)

I believe the answer is:

orchid

'plant' is the definition.
(orchid is a kind of plant)

'in porch i discovered' is the wordplay.
'in' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'ORCHID' is hidden within 'porch i discovered'.

(Other definitions for orchid that I've seen before include "Highly prized flower" , "Common houseplant" , "Chord I play for the flower" , "Cor! hid in the flower" , "Exotic and expensive flower" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
