To uproot or remove a plant from the ground.
From 'de-' (away/out) + 'plant' (from Latin 'planta'). This word combines the removal prefix with the botanical term, appearing in gardening vocabulary from the 1500s onward.
While 'uproot' is common, 'deplant' shows English's love of Latin prefixes—it's the kind of word gardeners might use to sound more scientific about yanking weeds out of the ground.
