The first flower that appeared on this Earth bloomed millions of years before humans existed. So, what color was it?

Green. Remember, modified leaf structure.

Well, *they* seem to think it was pinkish/orange and lived underwater. Nice picture.
"Based on the age of the rock in which they found it, the fossil's discoverers believe the plant lived at least 124.6 million years ago, during the dinosaur-dominated early Cretaceous period. "

likely white, which is the color that isn't really a color (color of nothing as opposed to the color black, which is the color of everything) since the first flower hadn't yet evolved to require attraction of bees, defend against bugs, etc.

It was probably a da** crocus, they're always the first to bloom...so I say purple.

whiteish pink, the apple blossom.
The flower that eventually turned to the fruit that caused all our prombles today
