A tree or shrub characterized by green-colored bark, sometimes referring to certain species of hickory or other woody plants.
From green + bark. A descriptive compound combining the color (green) with the outer layer of trees, possibly referring to young or specific species that retain green coloration in their bark.
Many young trees have green bark because the outer layer hasn't yet thickened into protective cork—this green tissue underneath can actually photosynthesize and help feed the tree, making it a clever backup energy system!
