Yes it does. The right amount of “extreme conditions” (direct sun, heat, cool temps) will bring out stress colors. Obviously without acclimation these conditions can hurt or kill the plant, but when the plant slowly adapts to the most frigid days of the cold season or all-day full direct sun in summer, these conditions bring out the most beautiful colors especially in succulents.

I’m a total sucker for stress colors. It’s the same dopamine sensation as getting a color-changing item like a toy or cup, but you have to work harder and wait longer for the color change in succs haha.
