Colors in French are adjectives. This means they are placed after the noun and must agree in gender and number.
Feminine Endings: You generally add an -e for feminine nouns. Le ciel est bleu vs. La mer est bleue. Some change a bit more: blanc becomes blanche.
Invariable Colors: Colors derived from nouns like fruits or objects (e.g., orange, marron) do not change their ending for plural or feminine nouns!
