Picturesque, scenically wooded.
Depending on the source, it could mean a pretty picture with trees, or a pretty picture of trees. Two slightly different things, which the definitions of this really old word are iffy about. Since Phrontistery says that this word is used from 1734 to 1734, it's probably not something I'll ever be able to answer.
I think these three are good examples of it though, and I hope you agree. I, personally, think I'm pretty blessed to be able to be around such awesome views.
I took all three of these, so I'm the source. And apparently I'm going to have to make a social-media page to share pictures of my cats and other cool things because...I just am going to have to. I'll let you know what I end up with.
Either way though, you have a new word to use to sound fancy. I know it doesn't quite fit the given definitions, but you could use it to describe a garden, or park with trees, or possibly even twist it to describe someone with a green thumb. It could be fun.
Seeya soon.
