Shifting limbs, soon becoming weighed down with flowers (2,7)
I believe the answer is:
in blossom
'weighed down with flowers' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'shifting limbs soon' is the wordplay.
'shifting' indicates anagramming the letters.
'limbs'+'soon'='limbssoon'
'limbssoon' anagrammed gives 'IN BLOSSOM'.
'becoming' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Irish Times.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
