Etymology
The word lushness comes from the simple word lush, which people use for plants or fabrics that are 'rich', 'full', and 'pleasing' to the senses; imagine a garden so full of green leaves it feels soft and heavy. So, lushness means that 'rich', 'very full', and 'pleasing' quality you see in a rainforest, a garden, or velvet curtains.
