Primrose (possibly scarlet?) (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pimpernel

(Other definitions for pimpernel that I've seen before include "Sir Percy Blakeney was a scarlet one" , "The Scarlet - (Orczy)" , "Once a much sought-after" , "of the English aristocracy once sought after in Paris?" , "associated with Blakeney?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
