Why is my Succulent Turning Purple
Succulents will change color or produce blooms when they are stressed. The stress can come from numerous different sources as well. Most green and purple succulents will be stressed with an increase in light or temperature.
The succulents on this list tend to turn purple if they are stressed. This is because they change pigments as a natural response to try and prevent sunburn on their leaves. Just make sure not to overdo it and kill the plant.
Is it Bad that my Succulent is Turning Purple
Not necessarily. Green succulents may turn purple when they are stressed and many people want this reaction and cause it on purpose. However, the color change also indicates that the plant is stressed. Make sure not to push it too far and keep an eye out for sunburn or shriveled leaves just in case.

If you stress a succulent with either sun or temperature changes, many of them will turn a variation of purple. If you’re looking for a great combination of green and purple succulents, you should definitely try one of these options.
