I believe the answer is:

stamen

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'male member in bloomers' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'testament featuring' is the wordplay.
'featuring' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'STAMEN' is hidden within 'testament'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for stamen that I've seen before include "Male part of flower" , "Bit of a bloomer" , "Manet's (anag.)" , "Part of a flowering plant" , "Flower's male reproductive organ" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
