Sorting out any hitch or bloomer (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hyacinth

'bloomer' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'sorting out any hitch' is the wordplay.
'sorting out' indicates anagramming the letters.
'any'+'hitch'='anyhitch'
'anyhitch' anagrammed gives 'HYACINTH'.

'or' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for hyacinth that I've seen before include "Fragrantly-flowered bulb" , "Spring-flowering bulb" , "Bulbous house plant" , "Spring flower" , "Fragrant bulb" .)
