Crossword Genius

It loves wild flowers (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

violets

'flowers' is the definition.
(violet is a type of flower)

'it loves wild' is the wordplay.
'wild' is an anagram indicator.
'it'+'loves'='itloves'
'itloves' anagrammed gives 'VIOLETS'.

(Another definition for violets that I've seen is " Small reddish-blue flowers".)
