Shade of deep pink (5)

I believe the answer is:

coral

(Other definitions for coral that I've seen before include "Carol (anag.)" , "Material of many Pacific islands." , "Reef-forming skeletons" , "Calcareous skeletal remains forming reefs" , "Shakespeare: 'Full fathom five thy father lies, of his bones are . . . . . made'" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
