STRING OF DOLPHINS 6in

If you’re looking to add a bit of whimsy to your indoor collection, the String of Dolphins (Senecio peregrinus) is a must-have. This charming succulent is a natural hybrid that produces tiny, curved leaves that look exactly like pods of dolphins leaping through the air. It’s a conversation starter that brings a sense of joy to any bright bookshelf or hanging basket.

To keep your dolphins "swimming" happily, light is the most important factor. They crave bright, indirect sunlight—about six hours a day is the sweet spot. Without enough light, those iconic dolphin shapes can flatten out, losing their unique look. Like its cousins, the Buttons and Pearls, this plant stores water in its leaves. I tell my neighbors to wait until the soil is dry to the touch before giving it a deep drink. Use a gritty, fast-draining succulent soil to ensure the roots stay oxygenated. With a little consistent light and careful watering, you'll have a cascading pod of greenery in no time.
