Not sure if the ID is correct would love some help. #1 is when I got it like 4 weeks ago, #2 is from like 9 days later and then the bottom ones are from today. Am I doing something right or wrong? @Yollymac @janetandjim any feedback would be appreciated

Looks like Graptopetalum Rose Queen to me.

Hi! I’m not sure about the photos since I’m on a phone and I can’t really see. Are you worried about the bottom leaves? Is the plant losing any leaves? Do you remember where you bought the plant?

Thanks @Yollymac I don’t think I’ve ever seen them in this orange color.

PS. The plants on the bottom have really good coloring to them.

@janetandjim just wondering if they’re supposed to look like this or if I should be doing something different.

My thoughts, and I am in no way an expert, is you got the plant home, have it better lighting conditions and it’s going to more of it’s natural color. I have a good friend(not on this list -yet) that helped me understand how lighting and stress in a plant can affect the coloring of the plants.

Curious-what part of the country are you in, are your plants in a window or under lights?

A huge number of succulents change color based on their exact light, temperature, and sometimes hydration. It looks like yours is quite healthy, just a little chameleon 🦎💚

@janetandjim I’m in North Carolina. We’ve had maybe two days of sun over the last two weeks. I take them out when there is sun. The rest of the time they are under grow lights.
