Solved:
I just have to leave out the last two characters, as the first 6 represent the
rgb colors in hex.
so #FF0000FF translates into:
[[ \textcolor[HTML]{FF0000}{$\blacksquare$ ]] my caption [[ } ]]
where [[ ]] stands for ERT.
And I have a filled square in the text and the caption in the colour used in R
for plotting.
