Spring perennial (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

iris

'spring perennial' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for iris that I've seen before include "who keeps pupil in?" , "Part of the eye, usually brown or blue" , "Rainbow-goddess" , "pupil's governor" , "Coloured part of the lamp" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times and the Canadiana.
