luxuriant
Thick and thriving
Luxuriant describes abundant, lush growth—thick and profuse: luxuriant foliage, luxuriant hair.
The word suggests richness and excess, vegetation so healthy it seems extravagant.
By extension, luxuriant can describe anything elaborately abundant: luxuriant prose, luxuriant ornamentation.
Not to be confused with luxurious, which means characterized by luxury or comfort.
