Fruit ruined by terrible shower (14)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

whortleberries

'fruit' is the definition.

'ruined by terrible shower' is the wordplay.
'ruined by' indicates anagramming the letters.
'terrible'+'shower'='terribleshower'
'terribleshower' is an anagram of 'WHORTLEBERRIES'.

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
