There are two very narrowly separated lines in the excitation spectrum of hydrogen at about 656 nm, which is in the red region of the spectrum. The energy corresponds to a transition from n=3 to n=2 (Balmer series).
These are far and away the most intense lines in the visible region of the spectrum, but there is also a line in the blue-green region, and several in the violet part. The overall color of a hydrogen lamp (analogous to a neon lamp, but with hydrogen instead) is a sort of fuchsia or magenta color. See the link in the "related links" section for a picture.
