You're going in the right direction, but that's not the answer. There are no anagrams in this clue, and one need know only English to get the answer.

Surely someone must have worked this one out by now.

Since I'm stalling the game at the moment I'll post the solution if nobody gets it by the end of the week.

Squatter, your cryptic clue has had me staring at my computer screen for many hours these past few days, & I have had naught to show for it but dry eyes & a headache. I hope I, or, at least someone, will be able to do you the service of solving it before the week's end.

Eye I'll have a go ...

Is it Celebrant?

A celebrant might be said to be someone involved in a celebration or rite, and it is also a flower (ie something that flows) in Middle-earth.
