This plant is unrecognizable after a severe bug issue made me chop it to the nubs. That rich red color? Well, I dunno when that will be back haha.

Maybe in the winter 😃 when did you take the photo of when it was reddish? I ask because the leaves are facing upwards which I’m guessing is its rest period?

Right.. I was suggesting when you purchased it that she may not have fully broken dormancy.. Many succs take on a full on blush or red color in the winter aside from typical sun/heat stress.
