Hi there! Your code is just fine and functional. However, it's important to note that when doing challenges (particularly ones that require strings) you must follow the formatting to the letter. In this case, it's simply your spacing that's off. They want a space between the colon and the numeric value for the color. Take a look:

 self.description = "red: \(red), green: \(green), blue: \(blue), alpha: \(alpha)"

Note the extra spacing between the colon and backslash on each item. Hope this helps! :sparkles:
