Warmer light enhances reds, yellows, and oranges, so the cool white
fluorescents can make it tough.  

The easiest way may be to install a solatube skylight

But with shortening day length you may also need an additional fixture. 
Warm white LED (2000K-4000K) would enhance the red colors and make them
easier to pick out.  These come in regular screw-in bulbs or complete
fixtures.
