Growing girl? (5)

I believe the answer is:

flora

This clue is a double definition.

'growing' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'girl?' is the second definition.

(Other definitions for flora that I've seen before include "growing flowers" , "list of plants" , "For example, Miss Macdonald" , "local plants" , "Various plants" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
