# My string of spades is acting weird. It’s blooming so the plant is…

_Posted by Lisette on 2023-10-13_

My string of spades is acting weird. It’s blooming so the plant is healthy and I haven’t changed the watering schedule. But the leaves are turning red. I don’t think it’s sun stress. Any ideas?

I haven’t had that happen before. Usually it’s the back side the turns color with a lot of light. Are the leaves still firm?

It’s still beautiful though
