A south-facing window can cause farina damage and leaf bleaching if the plant sits too close to the glass.

Overwatered plants show mushy, translucent leaves at the base rather than a gradual softening.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Is 'Murasaki' safe for cats and dogs?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA: It is pet friendly and non-toxic to cats and dogs.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How do I propagate this succulent?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA: 'Murasaki' propagates readily from leaf pulls or stem offsets. Allow a pulled leaf to callous for two to three days, then set it on dry succulent mix. Roots and a small rosette emerge within a few weeks.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Why are the leaves on 'Murasaki' turning yellow?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA: Yellow leaves at the base are usually a sign of overwatering or soil that is not draining quickly enough. If the yellowing is happening across newer leaves, the plant may not be getting enough light.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can this succulent handle dry indoor air in winter?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nA: 'Murasaki' tolerates the dry heated air common in winter interiors without issue.
