Use the hue/saturation adjustment.
Image/adjustment/Hue/Sat.

The hue/sat doesn't really do much to the BW but if it did you would simply mask it out.

If you are not used to masking you could simply use the magic wand selection tool click on the red....(or use the Color range to select all the red)
Either way select all the red, while the red is selected go to the add a adjustment layer (B/W circle at the bottom of the layer palette) and click on the hue/sat
This will automatically make a mask of the red you selected...now you can change the colors with the sliders.
