Huernia kennediana

[cwatson1414]

I'm concerned about this coloration. It was jut around the stem tip when I got it 8 months ago. Not totally sure when it spread honestly.



The light pink color is what I am referring to.
Does anyone know what's happening?

Huh? Light pink?

It's a bleached out pink color in person. The stem in the middle that is significantly lighter.
I'm wondering if this is part of an aging process for the stem or if it is a problem.

Looking at google images of this plant and the lighter colours seem fairly common , check it out and see what you think

Going by the above I'd say yours is perfectly normal ( if it's pink)
