Gracias Hardie.
agree John Speese : I agree, I used to work in vegetable production research and "verduras" is what the local Hispanic workers use for vegetables in general.

Thanks, John. It's because vegetales is more generic in Spanish.

Maybe I was too quick to answer.

It also may be related to the color green, depends on the context: greenery, verdure, greenness...e.g. la verdura de los prados.

vegetable/greens

It can be used as a reference to vegetables, but in Mexico it is also used as a name for green leaves such as cilantro, parseley, etc. specially when put on tacos.
