This was previously identified as an Aeonium #schwartzkopf, but would you please confirm? @Yollymac @KelsiBriana @Muzz67 @donnotdonny It doesn't seem to be turning darker and the leaves are not flat, but more rounded up.

@KelsiBriana Yes, the same one from autumn '17

The aeonium atropurpurem seems close. When do they get the dark purple colour? It is in full sun, but the leaves seems to stay green? @KelsiBriana

@gjones. Thanks! I wanted to research the succulent to see how I can get a richer colouring on it.

I don't have much aeonium experience apart from aeonium haworthii. I do think it looks like atropurpureum though. And yeah it might just be too happy to show the colors off from when you first got it.

@KelsiBriana @DonNotDonny Thanks for your thoughts. I'll see what happens as the summer goes by.

Mine looks exactly like your late autumn image and it's an atropurpureum. Mine changes colors with the seasons. Yours will probably go back to purple in the fall, just wait :)
