A lovely accidental word! Perfectly describes the way plants scramble in
great floppy loops ;-)

Not at all accidental, I'm afraid - probably ought to credit Douglas Adams,
but it's a word I use way more than I ought to.

The mattress flurred and glurried. It flolloped, gupped and willomied,
doing this last in a particularly floopy way

I'm not sure, but I believe this may mean that my melon plants are actually
growing a fine harvest of mattresses.
