Best Answer

No, generally lighter coloured leaves tolerate higher levels of sunlight; the extreme would be silver coloured leaves that reflect excess sunlight - as in the case of many desert plants.

The general tendancy of plants is the lower the light level the darker green the leaf, more chlorophyll is produced to comensate for the lower light levels.
