Any idea what might be happening to this petal that's turning red? I've had this succulent for about a month, watered it only one time, and three other petals have turned red, shriveled, and then dropped off. (ID needed)

@meriunkat what do you think about the leaf turning red? It looks like it needs water, but the soil still feels damp

I think if the leaves are shriveling up and falling off, then there isn't enough water, if it turns purple then it's rotting from too much water.

@Estefania Pereira solid advice, thanks! The soil still feels a little wet to the touch, so I'm hesitant to water again.

it seems wrinkly too, id say it could be underwatered if youve watered it only once for an entire month, but the caring of the plant may be different, id suggest looking for the signs of underwatering for your specific plant
