Bloom came up (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rose

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'bloom' is the first definition.
(bloom can mean a flower)

'came up' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)

(Other definitions for rose that I've seen before include "increased in price" , "mounted" , "Wine colour; plant" , "13 flower" , "'A . . . . by any other name smells as sweet'" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
