Some plants have no green on them at all, like the Purple Heart Tradescantia ([this is what it looks like](https://hort.extension.wisc.edu/articles/purple-heart-tradescantia-pallida/)) and plenty more.
Since plants photosynthesize with chlorophyll (this is a very basic understanding), which is the green pigment, why would any plant not want to be as green as possible? It seems counter-intuitive to have a dominant pigment that is not green. So how do they survive just as well as “greener” plants?

The leaves are green sort of, they contain Chlorophyll like other plants, but they also contain anthocyanin pigments making them darker than normal.
