According to the Oxford Dictionary, verdant means "to be green with vegetation; characterised by abundance of verdure."

A verdant university, also known as a gumtree university, is an informal term given to a group of Australian universities founded in the 1960s and 70s. They are known for being built next to native bush land, which are now nature reserves, within the metropolitan area of their state capitals, as well as having lush vegetative campuses. These consist of Macquarie University, La Trobe University, Flinders University, Griffith University and Murdoch University.

They form the third wave of universities in Australia, following the sandstone and red brick universities.
