Request acceptable - one may get a flower (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

begonia

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'flower' is the definition.
(begonia is a kind of flower)

'request acceptable one may get a' is the wordplay.
'request' becomes 'beg' (begging is a kind of requesting).
'acceptable one may' becomes 'oni' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'get' says to put letters next to each other.
'beg'+'oni'+'a'='BEGONIA'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for begonia that I've seen before include "colourful flower" , "Herbaceous plant whose flowers have no petals" , "bloomer" , "Common garden plant" , "Tropical plant" .)
