From d20srd.org: A wyrmling green dragon’s scales are thin, very small, and a deep shade of green that appears nearly black. As the dragon ages, the scales grow larger and lighter, turning shades of forest, emerald, and olive green, which helps it blend in with its wooded surroundings.
I think this kind of description dates back to AD&D 2e, but D&D 3.5 is easier to get online.
