green landscapes

Lush natural vistas

Green landscapes are outdoor environments characterized by lush vegetation—grass, trees, gardens, or other plant life.

The term appears in urban planning, real estate, and environmental contexts to describe spaces dominated by living greenery rather than pavement or buildings: The development preserves green landscapes between housing clusters.

Green may emphasize both the literal color and ecological value.
