Hi Greebo, from the linked dictionary:
65 entries found for green. The first 10 are listed below.
To select an entry, click on it. For more results, click here.
green[1,adjective]
green[2,verb]
green[3,noun]
Main Entry: 2 green
intransitive senses : to become green
transitive senses
1 : to make green
2 : REJUVENATE, REVITALIZE
So, GREEN is a verb, GREENED is its past tense, no?

Greebo, I have to agree on this one. If you type in any past tense into Merriam Webster, it comes up with the corresponding present tense. So PREENED gives preen (verb). And GREENED gives green (verb). If you accept any past tense, then you should accept GREENED.

Rules is rules...
Mind you, if I enter "greenned", it tells me that's not in
the dictionary and suggests "greened", which links to the
verb "green".

After much searching me has found one dictionary ( http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=greened ) to use greened with an explanation... so me will let it pass and give you your points Hedrigall... well done...
