Rose jilted (5,2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stood up

This clue is a double definition.

'rose' is the first definition.
('stand up' can be a synonym of 'rise')

'jilted' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

(Other definitions for stood up that I've seen before include "Failed to keep date with (someone)" , "made to wait in vain" , "Rose" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
