Morphology

greenness = green (transparent) = green + ness

Standard noun formation from the adjective 'green' using '-ness' to indicate the quality or state of being green.

Etymology

Greenness is built from green and the ending -ness, and green originally named the colour of growing plants and the idea of 'fresh' or 'growing'. So greenness means the quality of being 'green' in colour, like new grass.
