dense foliage
Impenetrable green canopy
Dense foliage is thick, closely packed plant growth—leaves, branches, and vegetation so abundant that little light passes through and visibility is limited.
The phrase typically describes jungle canopy, overgrown gardens, or heavily wooded areas: The trail disappeared into dense foliage.
Dense foliage provides cover for wildlife and creates the lush, impenetrable quality associated with tropical forests.
