Introducing the top-notch hanging plant String of Dolphins, also known as Senecio peregrinus, a beautiful member of the Secenio genus! It is sometimes called a dolphin necklace, a dolphin plant, or flying dolphins.

Native to Southern Africa, the string of dolphins is a trailing succulent in the Asteraceae family that is a cross between the string of pearls (Senecio rowleyanus) and the hot dog cactus (Senecio articulates). 


The string of dolphins gets its name from the way its leaves grow in a cascading pattern, resembling a pod of leaping dolphins in mid-air.

With their ionic dolphin-shaped leaves and long hanging tendrils, they can grow up to 6 inches tall.

The dolphin leaves are small, chubby, and curved, resembling jumping dolphins with fins and tails.

The Flowers of the String of Dolphins plant typically blooms in the spring and summer seasons. During this time, you may see clusters of small, white, tubular string of dolphins flowers appearing along the trailing stems and vines. It's a delightful sight to behold!

To propagate a string of dolphins Senecio peregrinus can be done easily through stem cuttings. You can simply use a sharp knife to trim off a healthy stem, leave it callous for a few days, and then place it in well-draining soil. With proper care and attention, you can watch your string of dolphins flourish and create a stunning display of leaping dolphins in your own home.

Pro Tip

It's time to prune your plant when its vines begin to resemble overcooked spaghetti. Identify the nodes, which are the tiny lumps on the vines, and trim slightly above them. By doing this, the plant is encouraged to grow rather than just hang.

Whether you choose to grow Senecio peregrinus in hanging pots, a decorative hanging basket alone, or let them trail down from a larger pot to a shelf, the string of dolphin plants is sure to add a touch of whimsy and charm to any space. It's a delightful plant that will capture the hearts of both plant enthusiasts and dolphin lovers alike!

Watering Needs  

Unlike most succulents that can be difficult to water, Senecio peregrinusis relatively simple to care for. This dolphin succulent has water-storing leaves. It's best to water it thoroughly and then allow the soil to dry out completely before watering again. Overwatering can lead to root rot and other issues, so it's important to avoid soggy soil or excess soil moisture.

In the spring and summer, during the growing season, your dolphins' string may require more frequent watering. However, in the fall and winter, during the dormant season, it's important to reduce watering and allow your String of dolphins to rest.

To determine when it's time to water your string of dolphins, simply stick your finger into the soil up to your knuckle. If the soil feels dry at that depth, it's time to water. Be sure to water the Senecio peregrinus evenly, allowing the water to soak through the soil and drain out of the bottom of the pot. Remember, always use a terracotta potting medium that has adequate drainage holes to avoid any damage.

Light Requirements 

If you're growing your String of Dolphins indoors, placing a pot of it in a sunny window near a north or south-facing window is usually a good choice. You can also use a sheer curtain or blinds to filter the light if it's too intense.

When growing outdoors, the String of Dolphins plant, it loves bright, indirect light and morning sun. When exposed to too much sun, your string of dolphin plants can easily become sunburned. This houseplant requires Full sun to partial shade sun exposure for almost 4-6 hours a day. 

If you notice that your dolphin plant starts stretching or leaning toward the light, it's a sign that it needs more light. On the other hand, if the leaves start turning yellow or brown, they may be getting too much direct sunlight. 

Remember, finding the right balance of light is important for the health and growth of your plant. So, keep an eye on how it responds to its current location and make adjustments as needed. 

Optimal Soil & Fertilizer Needs 

The string of dolphins favors very airy, sandy soil that drains well. Planting them in ordinary soil will result in compacted roots, stunted growth, and most likely root rot. Instead, make or buy a well-draining soil mix, or ideally use our specialized succulent potting mix that contains 5 natural substrates and mycorrhizae to promote new root growth that helps your succulent plants to thrive. 

When it comes to fertilizing, the String of Dolphins doesn't require a lot of nutrients. During the active growth of the growing season, which is typically early spring, you can fertilize it once a year with a natural, NPK fertilizer (5-10-5). However, during the dormant season, which is usually early fall and winter, you can reduce or even stop fertilizing altogether. This allows your dolphin plant to rest and prepare for healthy growth in the following season. 

Remember, it's always better to under-fertilize than to over-fertilize, as too much fertilizer can cause harm to your soft Senecio peregrinus. So, stick to a regular fertilizing schedule during the growing season and adjust accordingly during the dormant season. 

Hardiness Zones & More 

When grown indoors, the String of dolphins thrives in 60-80°F. As for humidity, the String of dolphins can adapt to both low and high-humidity environments. However, it generally prefers moderate humidity levels around 40-60%. If the air becomes too dry, you can mist the leaves with water or use a humidifier to increase the humidity around the plant. 

If you are living in USDA zone 10-11, you can grow your Strings of dolphins outdoors. This means Senecio peregrinus thrives in warmer climates where the temperatures rarely dip below freezing. It's important to avoid exposing it to temperatures below 50°F, as these below-freezing temperatures can cause damage to the plant. 

Remember, providing the right temperature and humidity conditions will help your String of Dolphins plant thrive and stay healthy.

I can't think of a single reason WHY,you SHOULDN'T get this book IMMEDIATELY!!
Format: Paperback
This profound book about soliciting answers from the Almighty concerning His methods of accomplishing His purpose for a believers life is absolutely eye-opening with its' unique perspective of the very dynamics of the act of asking questions itself!!! Quickly pointing out that asking God"why"is NOT a sign of being faith-less,but moreso a sign of ACKNOWLEDGMENT that Jesus IS effectively in capable command of EVERYTHING!! After this is discussed,the book only gets BETTER,clear through to the last page!!The conclusion Jakes reaches concerning the ultimate PURPOSE and benefit involved IN asking questions of King Jesus is SO profoundly simple and logical,that many a reader will find that they've recieved the very same revelation from King Jesus concerning getting"answers"!!Gods'actual thoughts on BEING questioned BY them whom He CREATED from DIRT are investigated and confirmed through scripture,will cause the believer to consider when asking King Jesus"why?!?"... The segment of this book comparing waiting ON Jesus and having patience IN waiting was EXCELLENT as the Biblical examples used to make his point were undeniable!!!! An inarguably INCREDIBLE book for assisting the troubled and discomfited Christian through the"when,what and WHY"of the Lords"waiting season"....The(scriptually-backed)description of how Lord Jesus "builds"His houses in"reverse"compared to Mans' constructiontecniques was absolutely MIND-BLOWINGLY comforting in its' truth and simplicity!! Having my entire PERSPECTIVE changed about Gods' AMAZING plans for my(formerley bleak)future was an INCREDIBLE experience that came at a time when it was MOST needed!! This is a book worth(TWICE)its' weight in DIAMONDS!! Get this book just AS quickly as you wish to be at PEACE in your musings upon your future in Christ!!

First Read of 2021
Format: Kindle
The timing of this book was beyond perfect in my life. The teachings of Bishop Jakes has blessed me beyond measures over the years. I received many confirmation ps while reading and I was in awe when he was discussing the anointing he talked about “crushing” which happens to be one of his books and my next read. The irony is the difference of years between the two books and I ironically just ordered a hard copy of Crushing. I feel like his newest book will be an elaboration to what I just read about the anointing and our trials and tribulations. I highly recommend this book it definitely gave me some clarity in certain areas of my life and I loved the analogies given. I’m grateful for Bishop Jakes wisdom and knowledge with the word of God
