I am not suggesting what you likely would have tried!

I tried gin. I'm not sure it was the answer but decided it was worth a shot.

Sorry, I was sleeping. Problem with being in NZ (the only problem with being in NZ). These get posted around 9/10 pm, and 4 hours later, I'm sleeping.
Solution is:
Sheep Skins = fleeces
devastated is anagram indicator
fleeces+for = effloresce = blossom
Guess I'd better make an easier one tonight.

Indirect anagram, eh? People have been imprisoned at the South Pole for less!!!
