I knew the category for green but fell for the red herrings. Also thought I knew the category for purple, but now the answer has been revealed, I don’t know one of them.

Purple by default but I snuck it in before the blue to make myself feel clever 😎
No hints or googling so feeling very full of myself as it's rare!
