Partly trimmed ginger fringe (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

edging

'fringe' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'partly trimmed ginger' is the wordplay.
'partly' indicates a hidden word.
'EDGING' is hidden within 'trimmed ginger'.

(Other definitions for edging that I've seen before include "Inching sideways" , "Siding; border" , "Border; moving carefully" , "Border, fringing" , "Advancing slowly on the fringing?" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
