Erumpent
Erumpent – bursting through or as if through a surface or covering; tending to grow out vigorously from a substrate so as to burst through or rise above its surface; prominent; projecting from or bursting through host tissue; breaking forth.
(Hat-tip, Ele Ludmann)
I'm looking at a tin-bath filled with erumpent Japanese knotweed. It's a beautiful sight.

Oh this is even better...plants AND special words!!...this one is nearly as good as "craplings" :)
What do you use the Japanese knotweed for?
It's edible, but mostly I use it to terrify pest-plant officers.
