Anyone know what’s happening with my zebra plant? The inside arms are burnt and a few of them have a red tint to them.

I’d keep it in indirect sunlight and keep it on a regular watering schedule. Usually completely drenching it and then letting it fully drain/dry once every 2 weeks is ideal for most cactus plants/succulents!

Thank you! I will move them out of the east facing window they are in now and adjust their watering frequency.

Mines are outside in full sun.  
Have never turned red unless it needs water or that part was dying.

UPDATE: Moving this guy to a less sunny spot has improved its color! No more red! I’ve also switched up the water schedule to once every two weeks. Thanks for all the recommendations!
