I haven't cracked this one yet — but the brilliant team at Fifteensquared have:

An anagram (‘shivering’) of ‘gardens col[d]’ minus the last letter (‘almost’), with a cryptic definition. Chambers lists the answer as hyphenated, but, as with many such compounds, separate words, hyphenated and oneword are all reasonable, perhaps with a progression over time in that order. If I were to give out ticks, that would get a handful.
