Just looking over a list of "intelligent races" from WoWwiki and seeing which races have not been discussed at length as possibilities.
Earthen - The origins of the Dwarven race, perhaps a group has been locked away and has not seen the same changes to their bodies. We've got Ulduman, Uldum, and Ulduar in the lore as possible locations, though the first of the three wouldn't happen.
Leprechaun - Supposedly "new" to Kalimdor, having just arrived from an island off the coast. There has been zero talk of this race.
Korred - Enemies of the Leprechauns, though I wasn't able to dig up much info on them.
Now, the second and third would be a sufficiently surprising addition. No one would see them coming. Whether or not the Korred or Leprechauns are "leafy" is unknown to me. But if it was one of these two races, there would easily be a way for the Horde to have an ally in the other, and thus a reason to fight them.
Edit: That's what I get for a misclick when typing the topic. *sighs*
