Spring bloomer (6)
I believe the answer is:
crocus
'spring bloomer' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for crocus that I've seen before include "Plant from a corm" , "Plant from which saffron is taken" , "Spring bulb" , "Occurs (anag.)" , "Early flowering bulb" .)
