I got several new succulents for $6 around a week ago, because the seller told me almost all of them needed help. I tried to figure out what type of succulent this is and picked the closest looking one from here. Two identification apps have said it looks sick, and I have no idea what’s wrong. Can someone tell me what it is or what I can do?

I think it’s some sort of fungus rust, you may have to buy a fungicide

Okay, thanks!

It’s sunburned. Succulents need to be acclimated first before it gets full sun all day.

I second the diagnosis of sunburn. It will not heal. You can prop it to start another plant but it will always have the burn marks.

Thanks so much! I’ve already started with 3 leaves from a couple days ago.

Prop a stem cutting. It’s much faster. And more chance of success.
