kaki vs. khaki

In case you don’t know, kaki is a red sweet fruit and khaki color is "uniform-green". Pronounced "kah-kee" is a well known word all over the world. In Slovenian language it is also written the same (kaki). Nevertheless, it is very similar word for the fruit (kaki) and the color (khaki) and this is very confusing, like red and green is the same color. Do you maybe know, before kaki get red, is it khaki green?

Update: Jana found this picture of khaki green kaki. It is obviously green, no?
