Why is no color emitted from the solid before it is placed into the flame?

Its electrons have not been excited to higher energy levels until after the solid is placed in the flame. The heat causes electrons to be excited and when they fall back down to their ground state, they emit light at a specific wavelength, giving off a specific color of visible light.

Why is FireRed and orange?
A flame gets its distinctive color due to the "excitement" of the fuel molecules. What you actually see is the energy transfer from the fuel igniting, turning into energy. The color of light emitted depends on the energy emitted by each electron returning to its original state. The white part of the flame is the hottest, Which is the first color you see. Going all the way into red, which is the coolest part of the flame.
