Why is it masculine?
Vert is masculine because it derives from Latin "viridis" (green). In Latin, "viridis" is a third-declension adjective that functioned as masculine/feminine/neuter depending on context, but when borrowed into Old French, color adjectives like "vert" were typically treated as masculine by default. French color adjectives generally do not follow a single productive gender rule; their gender is largely lexicalized and must be learned individually.
