Intent is to pick right flower (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

trent

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'flower' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'intent is to pick right' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'right' could be 'r' (common abbreviation) and 'r' is present in the answer.
The remaining letters 'tent' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't see.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for trent that I've seen before include "River that joins the Ouse to form the Humber" , "Major English river" , "Midlands banker" , "River through Newark" , "River flowing through Nottingham" .)

I've seen this clue in The Hindu.
