I believe the answer is:

cyclamen

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

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

I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for cyclamen that I've seen before include "Flower giving its name to a shade of pink" , "Garden flower" , "Perennial" , "Common house/garden plant" , "Plant with turned-back petals" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
