The change in color results when the pigments that formed as waste products accumulating in the leaves throughout the growing season become visible as the chlorophyll (in the chloroplasts) deteriorates. The carotenoids and flavonoids give the fall colors.

Onions dont need chloroplasts, so they dont have them.
