Bloomers produced by poor slums, say (8)
I believe the answer is:
alyssums
'bloomers produced' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'poor slums say' is the wordplay.
'poor' indicates anagramming the letters.
'slums'+'say'='slumssay'
'slumssay' anagrammed gives 'ALYSSUMS'.
'by' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for alyssums that I've seen is " flowering plants".)
I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
