They're also not including brown, from the soil they get their nutrients from! :(
Brown is how you get red leaf plants. Brown is just red and green mixed after all, so you take out the green for other stuff the plant needs and are left with red.
It’s all totally on the up and up.
That’s why a lot of fruits are red - that’s where the plant puts its red from its brown (dirt) so it can stay green! Science is fucking magical.
