Question

What was the primary irish color before green replaced it?

Answer 1

Have a look at this website as it gives the colours of the current flag & the ones preceding it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Ire...

Answer 2

The traditional arms of Ireland have the harp on a blue field. A gold harp on a green field (as opposed to the blue of the arms) was the traditional Green Flag of Ireland before the tricolour became popular.
