Morphology

woodiness = woody (transparent) = wood + y + ness

Formed by standard suffixation: wood + -y → woody, then woody + -ness → woodiness; the meaning is directly the quality of being woody.

Etymology

Woodiness comes from the common word wood ('trees') and the ending -ness ('state' or 'quality'). So woodiness is the 'state of having trees' — being full of woods, which is why we use it to talk about places rich in trees.
