That's what I think too. The brown leaf can't turn green again, plant would look better if you take that off, but glad you left it on for the pic to show what's going on. Looks like it has a toxic buildup of something in the soil, likely fluoride, to which this plant is very sensitive. Over time, some tap water can alter the PH of the soil also. Has it ever been repotted? The next time it's dry, I would flush the soil with a gallon of distilled (not bottled drinking water) or rain water if possible. Pour about 1/4 of the gallon on it, wait 15 minutes, pour another quart. Wait 15 minutes, then very slowly pour the last half gallon, all over the surface of the soil, not just in one spot. Then let it dry well before watering again. It likes very bright shade, but not much if any direct sun outside. In the house, some direct sun that's not during the middle of the day should be fine. Come on by the house plant forum if you have further questions or need instructions on repotting, best done during summer.

We can probably tell you the genus, possibly the species or hybrid, with a good photo. The best angle is not straight above or directly at the side, but halfway in between. Feel along the edges of the leaves. Do you feel spines? If not, it is probably a Guzmania or Vriesea or possibly a Tillandsia. Send the photo and tell us about the spines - I'll give it my best shot!

A beautiful Echeveria. Whether or not it can go outdoors year-round depends on where in the world you live.....

The crushed leaf didn't have a discernable smell, Nicole. I'm glad I didn't sniff too hard, because I'm so allergic to the nightshades. Can't be in the room if someone is peeling potatoes. I never heard of Shishito peppers, Bob, so I looked them up. The name would make sense, but the leaves look narrower. We'll let them keep growing--after I get them off my porch and onto my son's--and I'll report back when the flowers have produced some fruit. Thank you!
