chloroplasts

In plants, photosynthesis takes place in chloroplasts, which contain the chlorophyll. Chloroplasts are surrounded by a double membrane and contain a third inner membrane, called the thylakoid membrane, that forms long folds within the organelle.

The answer is chloroplasts which contains chlorophyll and help the plant maintain its color. If you rub a leave on the ground you will be able to see some green marks like a crayon on the ground.
