Washington, D.C.'s river (7)

I believe the answer is:

(Other definitions for potomac that I've seen before include "Washington's river" , "Flower" , "to which banks in Washington have access" , "Capital outflow" , "River of Washington DC" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, The Sun and the Universal.
