One solution is to use a the function MultipleListPlot in one of the
Standard AddOn packages:
<< Graphics`MultipleListPlot`
MultipleListPlot[mean, mean + Sqrt[var], mean - Sqrt[var],
PlotStyle -> {RGBColor[0, 0, 0], RGBColor[0, 1, 0], RGBColor[1, 0,
0]},
PlotJoined -> True];
This makes the broken lines joining the points in each of the three
lists the color you want. The points themselves stay black but have
different symbols (rectangle, plus sign, box); there are options to
change the symbols.
