Pretty much all visible light with the exception of green, green light is reflected thats why plants appear green (in general)
When the energy from the sun is trapped by chlorophyll, it excites electrons within the chlorophyll molecules. These excited electrons are then used to fuel the process of photosynthesis, where carbon dioxide and water are converted into glucose and oxygen.
Plants respond to different colors of light based on the absorption spectra of the pigments they contain, particularly chlorophyll. Chlorophyll absorbs light most efficiently in the blue and red regions of the spectrum for photosynthesis. Other colors are not absorbed as effectively or may even be reflected, which is why plants appear green to us. Different colors of light can also trigger different physiological responses in plants, such as flowering or phototropism.
The chlorophyll
Chloroplasts and the chlorophyll
In the fall, leaves stop producing chlorophyll, the pigment that gives them their green color. As the chlorophyll breaks down, other pigments such as carotenoids (yellow and orange) and anthocyanins (red and purple) become more prominent, resulting in the vibrant colors we see in autumn leaves.

Cloroplasts!
Leaves colors are according to the quantities of chlorophyll (which is green) the plant contains.
The trees change color in winter (some trees) because the temperature inhibits the synthesis of chlorophyll and therefore the carotenoids or the xanthophyll pigments become in excess in comparison to the chlorophyll resulting in giving different color to the tree.
Chlorophyll
All colors are absorbed by chlorophyll except for green.

the chlorophyll A and chlorophyll B
The chlorophyll
Leaves have different pigment molecules that are necessary for the process of photosynthesis. The pigment molecules reflect different colored wavelengths from the sun. For example Chlorophyll reflects green wavelengths. The reflected wavelengths reach eyes and cause the leaf to be different colors.
