Post the name of a fruit that is also a colour. No double-posts.
The last post is a winner :lol:
Orange!

If we allow some of the naming things from paint descriptions, we could be here for a while.
Lemon

Indeed. Please note however, that a fruit must have pips or a stone to count. Flowers are not fruit, so no magnolia!
I say:
Lime Green

A fish is neither fruit nor colour :lol:
I'm not sure I've ever heard "blueberry" used as a colour either, but it's probably in the Dulux colour chat somewhere :unsure:
Strawberry

Hey the fish wasn't an attempt.

Apparently, the G3 was available in lime (lime green), strawberry (pinkish-red), blueberry (royal blue), grape (purple), and tangerine (orange-yellow).
We've already used those though. I can only think of one more:
OliveI'm pretty sure that's a fruity colour, although it's not very colourful :lol:

Well, technically that colour isn't called "Tomato" it's Tomato Red, there isn't a fruit called a "Tomato Red" AFAIK :P
I see your weak fruit and raise you Mulberry

:D Well, in that case, it's technically....
RAL 1012: Lemon yellow.
RAL 3018: Strawberry red.
RAL 6003: Olive green.
RAL 7002: Olive grey.
RAL 8008: Olive brown.
RAL 1020: Olive yellow .
Anyhow, in the less industrial powder coat paint orientated, and more arty PANTONEŽ system it's just called Tomato (18-1660 TC). :P
Mulberry's good though...
Erm, :unsure:
Raspberry
(RAL 3027, PANTONEŽ 18-1754 TC, and a beret in a song)

So is the colour the green outside bit or the pink inside bit? :unsure:
Anyways, I'm proud to present the
