Stare wildly at bloomer (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

aster

'bloomer' is the definition.
(aster is a kind of flowering plant)

'stare wildly' is the wordplay.
'wildly' indicates an anagram.
'stare' is an anagram of 'ASTER'.

'at' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for aster that I've seen before include "Showy garden flower" , "Kind of daisy" , "Stare (anag.)" , "Christmas daisy" , "Plant of Michaelmas daisy family" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
