This is the answer to the question What is better – to use natural wood on the facade of the house or cement (metal, plastic) panels with wood texture?
Revision 1
It is not only larch that changes color over time, but also other species and even thermal wood. There is no wood that is completely unaffected by natural factors. It's only polymer products if only. And then, I met a lot of people who complain that the products made of wood pulp behave badly, cracks, splinters, etc.
So of course, over time, the color tarnishes, becomes less pronounced. And the pristine color of wood preserves, depending on what it is coated with. It is better to cover with high-quality wood oils from foreign manufacturers (Germany, Italy). Such oil without renovation can withstand an average of 5 to 8 years, if you need specific brands of oil, I can also tell you.
Low-quality oil can manifest itself in one or two seasons, the quality product will last many times longer.
