# Hi! I need some help identifying this succulent. I originally thought…

Hi! I need some help identifying this succulent. I originally thought it was a Mexican snowball (echeveria elegans) but now thinking maybe it’s not? I am also concerned because it’s turning pink. Any advice?

It looks a bit like an echeveria runyonii (topsy turvy). I think the pinkish color may be related to increase in sunlight exposure. I know jades get a bit red around their edges when they get lots of light, so this could be similar.

The pink looks normal don’t worry!
