Crossword Genius

An end of greed perhaps? Paradise! (6,2,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

garden of eden

'paradise' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'an end of greed perhaps?' is the wordplay.
'perhaps?' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen 'perhaps' mean this).
'an'+'end'+'of'+'greed'='anendofgreed'
'anendofgreed' anagrammed gives 'GARDEN OF EDEN'.

(Other definitions for garden of eden that I've seen before include "Genesis paradise" , "Scene in Genesis" , "Home of Adam and Eve" , "Pre-lapsarian paradise" , "Idyllic haunt" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian and The Telegraph.
