Plant caught, surrounded by angry Russians (9)
I believe the answer is:
narcissus
'plant' is the definition.
(narcissus is a kind of plant)
'caught surrounded by angry russians' is the wordplay.
'caught' becomes 'c' (cricket abbreviation).
'surrounded by' indicates putting letters inside.
'angry' indicates anagramming the letters.
'russians' anagrammed gives 'narissus'.
'c' going within 'narissus' is 'NARCISSUS'.
(Other definitions for narcissus that I've seen before include "Who saw himself as winning" , "Daffodil-like bulb" , "Type of daffodil" , "Spring-flowering bulb" , "In Greek myth, youth in love with his reflection" .)
