X11: How to Display Xclient on a Color Monitor

I am trying to display an Xclient that does not accept the -display option. Is there any way to display the client on a color monitor?
Since the client is reading the DISPLAY variable from the environment, an easy way around this is to set the environment as part of the command.

For example: env DISPLAY=hostname:0.3 /usr/bin/X11/xterm.
