This depends on the production process for the tea; steamed teas (including most Japanese teas, Sencha, Bancha, Kukicha, etc.) tend to be greener in color than pan-fired teas (which include most Chinese green teas -- Dragon Well, Bi Luo Chun, Chun Mee, Gunpowder, etc.).

The greenest loose-leaf tea is Gyokuro. Gyokuro is even greener than other Japanese teas because the tea plants are shaded for a few weeks before gathering. This makes the leaves produce more chlorophyll, in an attempt to get as much energy out of less light.

The greenest tea of all is Matcha; it is made from Gyokuro plants, but then powdered. It retains a bright opaque green color in the final brewed cup because all of the powder is added directly to the cup.

Also, why are some teas "green" than others? Different teas are produced in ways that are better for the environment than others!
