Tender rose arrangement (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

sore

'tender' is the definition.
(I know that tender can be written as sore)

'rose arrangement' is the wordplay.
'arrangement' indicates an anagram.
'rose' anagrammed gives 'SORE'.

(Other definitions for sore that I've seen before include "Hurt" , "source of distress" , "Painfully sensitive" , "Hurting, painful" , "Painful spot" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
