The answer to each clue is a flowering plant

1 A romantc lover will always be seen to carry this (6) Adonis ???
2 Paste, or false gemstone (8) Amethyst ???
3 Does it produce very cold cubes instead of flowers ? (5,3)

All help welcome

2 sham rock

2 could be hyacinth - a red transparent variety of zircon used as a gemstone
