You're talking about

SPRING.

Free three months

The are three months in the season of spring; "spring" can also mean to free

Jump the flower.

Jumping is "springing", and flowers appear in spring; also, a spring, the body of water, is a "flow-er".

Originate the coil.

Both "originate" and "coil" are synonyms of "spring".

Reverse the addendum and finish with a bell sound.

P.S. is an addendum; a bell sound is a RING. Reverse and concatenate to get SPRING.

    $\begingroup$ Spring can be another word for free as well, as in freeing someone from the prison of winter (ooooh, metaphor). $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ In the second part of the second line, ask yourself how you might describe a thing which proceeds as one form of this thing does. As another comment points out, the first word is a clue on its own. Thus, three double clues followed by a two-part single clue. Couldn't stop myself once I got going. $\endgroup$ Feb 25, 2016 at 14:55
