Discolouring Cordyline Australis

Hello plant lovers, I have 2 young red Cordyline Australis by the front door, they are in partial shade (they get the sun in the morning). They are planted in pots. Recently we have noticed that the leaves are losing their lovely red colour, otherwise they look healthy. Does anyone have any suggestions of what to do? Many thanks 🌴

    They may be feeling the cold. Can you give them a bit of shelter from wind and frost?

    I think that as light levels pick up in the summer the colour will improve. 

    Don’t forget to turn the pot regularly so the plant gets even amounts of sunlight.
