Part of Florida, homely US state (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

idaho

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

'part of florida homely' is the wordplay.
'part of' indicates a hidden word.
'IDAHO' is hidden within 'florida homely'.

(Other definitions for idaho that I've seen before include "US state S. of Montana" , "found in America" , "State of northwest US" , "Rocky Mountain state" , "US state bordering Canada" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
