# I’ve been away for a couple of days and I’ve come back to my silver…

I’ve been away for a couple of days and I’ve come back to my silver inch plant a bit of a different colour - it’s normally a dark purple, any ideas?

was it getting enough light? mine sometimes looses its vibrancy when it’s gloomy outside and she doesn’t get enough sunshine

It’s in the window but the weather hasn’t been the best the past couple of days so maybe it hasn’t

did you lower/change the thermostat while you were away? maybe it was a little chillier than it prefers

That’s normal! It can be in shade or sun and the color just changes depending on it

purple = lots of sun  
greenish purple = perfect  
green = little sun
