Crimson Jewel Mandevilla is a vigorous tropical evergreen vine with dark green glossy oval foliage and exotic flowers that open a deep crimson and slowly fades to a deep fuchsia. I suspect the flowers you're seeing are in the latter stages of their life. New flowers should begin crimson and fade to fuchsia.
