Morphology

ever-blooming = blooming (transparent) = ever + bloom + ing

Literal composition of 'ever-' + 'blooming' yields the meaning 'producing flowers continuously', which is directly inferable from the parts.

Etymology

Ever-blooming joins ever ('always') and bloom ('flower'), so it describes a plant that keeps making flowers for a long time and gives color and smell for many months.
