Well there are actually different types of cholorophyll, and they absorb light from different parts of the spectrum, however the answer you are probably looking for is that they don't absorb light from the green part of the spectrum. This is in fact why photosynthesizing plants are green.
That is the green light. That is why they appear green
That is the green part. Thats why it looks green

Green
The property that when it enters your eye, you know it.
Visible light is a small region of the electromagnetic spectrum that is characterized by a specific range of wavelengths and frequencies
The human eye can detect electromagnetic radiation in the visible region of the spectrum only. This region extends to the radiations of wavelength of 7600-3800 Angstrom
As you increase frequency past violet light, to the region where the eye no longer perceives it, you're in the "ultraviolet" region.
Ultraviolet radiation is of higher energy than visible light. Ultra-violet suggests that it is above violet in the spectrum, and the colour violet is the uppermost region of visible light.
I'm thinking it must be the green region. That's probably why plants look green to me, after their chlorophyll has absorbed all the other colors of light.

Visible region.
Chlorophylls absorb light most strongly in the red and violet portions of the spectrum. Green light is poorly absorbed so when white light (which contains the entire visible spectrum) shines on leaves, green rays are transmitted and reflected giving leaves their green color. The similarity of the action spectrum of photosynthesis and the absorption spectrum of chlorophyll tells us that chlorophylls are the most important pigments in the process.
I'm thinking it must be the green, because the plant always spits the green back out toward my eyes.
The visible light spectrum is the only part of the spectrum that we can perceive with our eyes. It is commonly considered to be the 400nm -700 nm region. It lies between ultraviolet and Infrared region of the light spectrum.

The emission of sodium lies in the yellow region

Chlorophylls reemit a fraction of the light energy they absorb as fluorescence. Irrespective of the wavelengthof the absorbed light, the emitted fluorescence is always on the long-wavelength side of the lowest energy absorption band, in the red or infrared region of the spectrum.The fluorescent properties of a particular chlorophyll are functions of the structure of the molecule and its immediate environment. Thus, the fluorescence spectrum of chlorophyll in the living plant is always shifted to longer wavelengths relative to the fluorescence spectrum of a solution of the same pigment. This red shift is characteristic of aggregatechlorophyll.AnswerChlorophylls reemit a fraction of the light energy they absorb as fluorescence.
