String of Dolphins (Senecio peregrinus) has curved, dolphin-shaped leaves strung along slender vines. Place its grow pot on a bright shelf so the distinctive strands have room to spill over the edge. You’ll receive one live rooted plant in a 4-inch grow pot; decorative pots shown in styled photos are props and are not included.
Size and growth: Ships in a 4-inch grow pot. Trailing strands lengthen with time and may vary in fullness and length from the photographs; mature spread depends on care and growing conditions.
Care guide
- Light: Provide bright indirect light with some gentle morning sun. Acclimate gradually to direct light and avoid harsh afternoon exposure.
- Water: Water thoroughly once the potting mix has dried, then let it drain completely. Water less often in cooler, slower-growing months. Avoid leaving roots in standing water.
- Soil: Plant in a fast-draining succulent mix in a container with drainage holes.
- Temperature: Keep in a warm spot and protect from frost. Average indoor humidity is suitable.
- Feeding: Feed lightly with diluted succulent fertilizer during active growth if desired.
- Pruning: Trim leggy strands with clean scissors to encourage branching; handle vines gently.
- Repotting: Repot when roots fill the grow pot, using a slightly larger draining container.
- Propagation: Healthy stem cuttings can root in a well-draining mix after cut ends have callused.
Pet and child safety: Senecio plants should be treated as toxic if eaten. Keep this plant and any fallen pieces out of reach of pets and children.
