Greek plinthos, brick / base. As a color modifier, plinth implies a column-base-and-pedestal quality, the visual register of Greek-and-Roman-Plinth hand-cut column-base-and-statue-pedestal Doric-and-Ionic-and-Corinthian classical-plinth architectural surfaces under classical-plinth column-base light.

The dense canopy of a temperate or tropical woodland — oak, beech, pine, eucalyptus, mahogany — wherever leaves close above to filter the light below. Forest green refers to the average reflectance of a healthy mid-summer canopy seen from below: a saturated, slightly muted green with the matte finish of layered chlorophyll. Deeper than fern, cooler than olive, with the ecological weight of a word that has named every wooded biome on Earth.
