Perhaps the word you are thinking of is apocryphal. But I do like what the spelling apocraphyl implies--it sounds like some kind of plant compound. May I borrow this spelling?

This should be the name of the pigment that imbues those cheap bunches of flowers at the local deli with their artificially bright neon petals.
I too rather like this, but more for the reason that it emphasizes the "crap" that apocryphal stories oftentimes turn out to be :)
I just registered apocryph.al last week. I think it'd make a great blog URL.
