Loss of colour

Loss of colour

Hello
My Nandina has grown rather tall and bushy but stayed almost green last year. While it is in chalky soil it is up against a wall north-west facing and gets light but not much sun. Is this the reason why it has lost its autumn shade colours please?

    I'm guessing it's been planted there for a couple of years? They do like a dose of sun through the day; the happiest specimens I've planted have had at least a couple of hours a day; they are woodland edge dwellers in the wild.. you could try feeding it to encourage the berries to come as chalk soils are a little thin & low in nutrients; that should bring its colour back too!
    Good luck!
