zonal markings fading on pelargonium

Greetings.

Does anyone know what causes the zonal markings on certain pelargoniums? Mine is about five years old and the brilliant burgundy horseshoe markings started fading/not showing up after the second year. Since then, I have periodically searched for an answer to what promotes the markings with no luck. I had become resigned that it may have been some nursery hoodoo beyond my amateur means and does not take away from my love of the plant. Last month, a few of the leaves began showing the zonal marks again and I am hoping I can find an answer to encouraging the characteristic.
