Sedum morganianum (Burrito)

Hi,

In the last couple of weeks my plant has developed a pinkish/reddish hue to its leaves. It looks beautiful, but is this normal? Every picture I see of this plant is of leaves that are a fairly uniform green/silvery hue.

Thanks!

 

Mine does the same on the new growth and seems perfectly healthy. Could be cooler temps? not sure.

 

OK Wask, thanks...mine seems healthy too...it's just weird I've never seen a picture of the plant with that hue.

 

Do you have a photo of your plant? Is it S. morganianum or S. burrito? I've never seen either of these get any color to them besides pale green & I live in a place (& grow my plants hard) where many of my succulents color up. If it doesn't have a hanging habit, you might have Sedum rubrotinctum, which does color up. Are the leaf ends pointy or round?

 

Hi Rosemarie,

I'll take a picture for you! I'll post it later.

Thanks!

Rosemarie,

OK, here they are...I hope they're good enough for you to see the reddish hue...

Okay...yes, that looks fine. The old growth getting older. :) Don't be surprised if it dries up & falls off. It might want a tad more water. I'd say you have a fine-looking Sedum burrito there. :D Thanks for taking the time to take/post the pix!

 

Thank YOU! I feel better now...Claudine
