I'm nor sure, but I think the reason is not so sophisticated. Light is important for plants not less than a water. If they don't get it, they don't have enough strength for a proper bloom. You are not going to win heavyweight competition if you eat only cabbage, aren't you? But it is just my point of view. May be I'm wrong.

Oh, well in that case, which makes sense, I can see how light can affect bloom quality, in terms of bloom numbers and frequency, but color?

The intensity of foliage colour changes if the light intensity change. Why the intensity of colour of flowers should behave differently?
