Chlorophyll absorbs violet-blue and orange-red light spectrum and converts this light energy to chemical energy (photosynthesis). It reflects green and yellow light, causing it to appear to be green.

Carotenoids are a group of red, orange, and yellow pigments that work with chlorophyll in the photosynthesis process.

Riboflavin, (Vitamin B12), is one of several pale yellow to green pigments that are produced by several plant groups.

Flavonoids, found in leaves, block ultraviolet light and admit light that is important to photosynthesis. Flavonoids are important in flower color, providing red and blue pigments. Bright fall colors are produced by the conversion of colorless flavonoids, called flavonols, into colored forms, called anthocyanins.

Quinones provide many yellow, red, and orange pigments.

Also, xanthophyll and tannin can be found in most trees.

White pigments in plants are called Flavonoids. Flavonoids in flowers and fruit attract animal pollinators and seed dispersers to help them to locate their target.

The pigment found in most plants is green-colored chlorophyll. This compound is found in plant's chloroplasts. Thus, chloroplasts are the site of photosynthesis in plants.
