Loam is comprised of a combination of clay, silt and sand. Since the amount of each varies and there are also different colors of each of the components, loam will also be different in color depending about what the mix is made of. Generally speaking, loam would be 'earthen' in color: shades of grey, brown, reddish brown and black.
