Senecio Peregrinus (String of Dolphins) 4”—A Splash of Oceanic Charm

Meet the Senecio Peregrinus, lovingly known as the “String of Dolphins.” This quirky and playful succulent brings seaside vibes to your home with its signature foliage shaped like tiny, leaping dolphins. It’s a conversation starter and a plant lover’s dream, combining charm, resilience, and a love for bright spaces.

The Nitty-Gritty (Plant Care):

• Light: Thrives in bright, indirect sunlight but can handle some direct rays—think morning sunshine, not desert blaze.

• Water: Likes its soil on the dry side. Water thoroughly, then let it dry out completely before the next drink—this dolphin isn’t into soggy swimming pools.

• Humidity: Low to average humidity is just fine. It’s a desert native, so no need for a tropical spa day.

What It’s Telling You:

• Happy Signs: Plump, firm “dolphins” that hold their playful shape.

• Needs TLC: Wrinkled, shriveled leaves? It’s thirsty. Yellowing or mushy leaves? Too much love (aka overwatering).

Good News for Pet Parents:

This plant is not pet-safe, so keep it away from curious nibblers to ensure a happy, healthy home for everyone.

Extra Love for Detail Lovers:

• The 4” size refers to the diameter of the nursery pot, not the height of the plant.

• Your Senecio Peregrinus will arrive in its nursery pot—any containers or ceramics shown are just for styling inspiration.

• At 3B’s Flowers, we photograph every plant in-house, but nature doesn’t do clones. Your String of Dolphins may have unique variations in leaf shape and size, making it one-of-a-kind.

Symbolism with Style:

With its whimsical dolphin-shaped leaves, this plant reminds us of playfulness, freedom, and connection to nature. It’s a perfect gift for ocean lovers or a joyful addition to any light-filled room in your home.
