I purchased 2 succulents and i didn't notice any kind of scarring on them at all in the store.The next day they were both scarred.These names are straight off the label and the first i can't find it anywhere.

1.Echeveria 'sleepy' Echeveria Hybrid (there is a (TM) next to sleepy ??)

After a couple of days the scarring turned black and the leaves are falling off.The temp hasn't dropped below about 55 degree or so.Only these 2 plants have the scarring.Could it be insects & do these plants get mealy bugs?I had mealy bugs in my sedum reflexum,i have treated the plant once,it looks good so far.
A green thumb comes only as a result of the mistakes you make while learning to see things from the plants point of view!!
