But other animals can see color too, so it may be that the color came before the fruit even if the fruit came before humans.
If you are just referring to the words, then the fruit was named first and the color was named after the fruit.

animals can indeed see color too
so which came first then
animals or fruit
so which came first then
animals or fruit
The color is after the fruit.

Yes, but not all animals are colorblind. In fact, many can see more colors than we can, and so they would consider us colorblind!
In any case, I imagine that at the very least, primates that preceded humans would still have the same color vision as humans. Probably most mammals as well. But don't quote me on either of those points.

According to orangic theory, everything that is perceived as orange consists of an orange fluid called orangic. Orangic moves from orange objects to non-orange objects and thereby transfers the colour orange. Objects that are perceived orange have the peculiar property to accumulate all of their orangic on their surface and have no orangic on their inside. The fruit orange is an example for this. The continuous loss of orangic due to the transfer to non-orange objects is compensated by a reduced thickness of the orangic surface. Therefore it is perceived as orange as ever no matter how much orangic it loses to other non-orange objects. Orangic is a conserved quantity and therefore unproducible and undestroyable. It is not yet known what symmetry causes the conservation of orangic.
colors being there, existing, doesn't depend on being perceived by whom- or whatever. it's wavelengths of light, electromagnetic radiation.
it didn't wait to come into existence until vision appeared.
