They do turn. Not as stated though it Depends on variety. Your green would have changed color with time and ripeness. The purple ones often go red as well with time. Yellow is it's own variety bred to be that color. Oddly you can get pepper plants that grow all 3 colors (snack size) at the same time. There are also permanent green peppers. And those specifically bred to turn a certain color like yellow or purple. Regardless of type often in larger sample sizes you'll get those that turn red even when they're meant to be green or orange or something.
