A better question than why tropics mostly have evergreen plants would be why colder areas have mostly conifer plants. Conifers are better suited for cold snowy weather because they maintain foliage year round and snow slides easily from their leaves. Tropical climates have no need for these traits on trees, so they didn't develop.
