Currently colorful succulents are the pop to the poppy or the razzle to the dazzle. Each plant in this list is specifically chosen for its intense and magnificent coloration. We’re talking the brightest of reds, the deepest of blues and the darkest of purples. Check this list frequently as we keep it up to date with the seasonal variations of the plants.
What influences a plant’s colors?
There are a few different factors that influence a plant’s colors. A few of the most important arelight, drought and season.
Light
Generally speaking, the more light a succulent receives, the more intense its coloration is going to be. This is because the plant produces extra pigments (i.e. anthocyanin, a red pigment) to protect itself from the harsh rays. Many succulents are good at protecting themselves from harsh sunlight, but be able to recognize signs of sunburn, caused by too much light.
Drought
A lack of water for an extended period of time can also help bring the best colors out of a plant. The phenomenon of light and drought giving color to a plant is called stress. It isn’t damaging to a plant and, like human stress, can help a plant reach its full potential. Be careful not to underwater your plants too harshly while stressing them!
Season
Plants have mysterious ways to tell the seasons apart. They can detect small changes in the quality of sunlight that remains imperceptible to us. They can also use humidity to tell the difference of the seasons. The reasons why are manifold, but the results are the same; your plant’s color will change throughout the year to one degree or another. That’s just one more reason why succulents are uniquely charming!
