Strongly urge to take part in complex horticulture (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

exhort

'strongly urge' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'part in complex horticulture' is the wordplay.
'part in' indicates a hidden word.
'EXHORT' can be found hidden inside 'complex horticulture'.

'to take' is the link.

(Other definitions for exhort that I've seen before include "Spur on" , "Strongly encourage (someone to action)" , "Strongly urge (someone to do something)" , "Give great encouragement to" , "Urge, advise earnestly" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
