IM = imread('red_rose.jpeg');
R_only = IM;
R_only(:,:,[2 3]) = 0;
imshow(R_only);
pause;
G_only = IM;
G_only(:,:,[1 3]) = 0;
imshow(G_only);

You have to define what it means for a color to be "green". See https://blog.xkcd.com/2010/05/03/color-survey-results/ for partial information on differences in how some people define green.
When I say you have to define what it means for a color to be green, I mean that you need to give us rules that allow us to test any given RGB pixel and determine Yes, or No, "Does this color count as green?". It has to be able to make firm decisions. For example, does RGB [0, 1/255, 0] count as "green", or does it count as "black" ? Does [242/255, 255/255, 242/255] count as "green" but [252/255, 255/255, 252/255] counts as "grey" ? If the green channel is full intensity, then exactly what is the maximum that the R and B channels can be set to and still have the color count as "green"? We need hard rules with all of the boundary conditions described, not just the word "green".

I use the attached code to extract red color (it use LAB color, you can change the LAB value of the color you want in LMean aMean bMean) and you can change the tolerance as well. Parts code from https://se.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/31118-color-segmentation-by-delta-e-color-difference
