A spiny or thorny shrub or plant, particularly one with a sharp, prickly nature, used in Spanish nomenclature.
From Spanish 'escambrón' or 'cambronera,' possibly related to 'cambro' (thorny plant) or Arabic influences in Iberian plant terminology.
Many Spanish plant names come from Arabic because the Moors ruled Spain for 800 years—so 'escambron' might contain linguistic layers from medieval Islamic botany!
