Answer for 3/17:
 
Wearing green for St. Patrick's Day is a long-held custom. But originally another color was associated with St. Patrick, and there is even a color with the name "St. Patrick's ____", which appears on the Irish Presidential Standard and the Coat of Arms of Ireland. What is this other color?
 
Blue, or St. Patrick's Blue. The green, long associated with Ireland and Irish people, maybe have come about due to the phrase "the wearing of the green", which means to wear a shamrock on your clothes.
