'residual feelings' is the definition.
The answer and definition can be both feelings as well as being singular nouns.
Maybe they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'tag flower arrangement' is the wordplay.
'arrangement' indicates an anagram.
'tag'+'flower'='tagflower'
'tagflower' anagrammed gives 'AFTERGLOW'.

'with' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for afterglow that I've seen before include "Remaining light" , "fading light" , "Post-sunset radiance" , "appearing when sun has set?" , "residual light" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
