Have you talked about dominant and recessive genes, in class? 

The parents were both green, 
but the children must have inherited recessive genes for different colors, from the parents. 

Even though the parents were green, they must have carried genes for other colors. 
And these genes, for other colors (such as blue, white, and yellow), must have been passed onto the children.
