Appear again stripping trees and verges, stopped by 1st of May (2-6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

re-emerge

'appear again' is the definition.
(synonyms)

I can't explain the remainder of the clue.

(Another definition for re-emerge that I've seen is " Come out again".)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
