The vibrant colors of red, orange, yellow, brown, and purple in fall leaves result from the breakdown of chlorophyll, the green pigment responsible for photosynthesis. As days shorten and temperatures drop, chlorophyll production slows and eventually stops, revealing other pigments in the leaves. Carotenoids produce yellow and orange hues, while anthocyanins create red and purple shades, often formed in response to sunlight and cooler temperatures. The combination of these pigments, along with the remaining chlorophyll, creates the stunning fall foliage we admire.
Leaves cannot be ate. It does not matter what color they are.

The pigments responsible for red, orange, and yellow colors in leaves are carotenoids and anthocyanins. Carotenoids produce yellow and orange hues, while anthocyanins create red and purple tones. These pigments are present in leaves but may be masked by the dominant green chlorophyll during the growing season.

If you mix yellow and purple together, you would get orange, but it depends on which purple you use. If you use light purple you would get light orange and if you use dark purple you would get a regular orange.
