One of each four.

Explanation:

When you cross ggPp x GgPp you get the following offspring:

GgPP GgPp ggPp and ggpp and they are all expected in the same proportions. The breeder wants green and purple offspring, or ggP - and you can see that that corresponds to ggPp which is expected in a proportion of one of every four offspring.
