Apparently colors assigned to Hidden, Read-only, and System attributes apply only to files.
You could submit a request for colors to apply to folders as well. (Tested in FC-XE 598.)

If this will be implemented, folders need to have the new items - I'd like to use different color for folders to easily identify them.

The order in the list is important. The first matched attribute is used.
If you like hidden folders in some color, than set the order of the "hidden" before "folder".

Thanks, Karol; that's very helpful to know. I was wondering what happened if more than one attribute applied.
