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.

No taste or texture - it completely dissolves!
Flavor Name: Unflavored, Size: 1.1 Pound (Pack of 1)
Easy way to add fiber to diet. Stir it in coffee or a non-carbonated cold drink. You can't tell it as even added because it completely dissolves.

Keeps me feeling full. Perfect addition to protein shake
Flavor Name: Unflavored, Size: 1.1 Pound (Pack of 1)
Tasteless pretty much. I’ve added to coffee, lemonade, cereal with milk, sauces, stir fry, pasta sauce, yogurt. It’s great addition to my protein drink. It helps me both keeping good on the bathroom but it helps me feel more full and snack less. It has been a secret in helping me lose weight.

A Convenient Fiber Supplement- Digestion, Regularity, Microbiome, Satiety, Hair, Skin, Nails
I’ve tried quite a few fiber supplements over the years, and this one stands out mostly because it combines digestive support with beauty-focused ingredients instead of being just another plain fiber gummy. The formula includes inulin and chicory root fiber, along with a fairly large probiotic blend containing multiple strains like Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus plantarum, and Bacillus coagulans. That combination makes sense since prebiotic fiber and probiotics are often paired together to help support digestive balance and regularity. The added hair, skin, and nail ingredients are also interesting here. Biotin is commonly used for supporting stronger nails and healthier-looking hair, while collagen peptides and keratin are popular ingredients for skin elasticity and hair structure. Vitamin C helps support collagen production naturally, and Vitamin E adds antioxidant support. The apple cider vinegar and saw palmetto are smaller additions, but they round out the formula nicely for overall wellness support. One thing I appreciated is that these are gummies instead of powders or large capsules. Fiber supplements can sometimes feel like a chore, especially the gritty drink mixes, so having a chewable option made it easier to stay consistent. The blueberry flavor was actually pleasant and not overly artificial. Texture-wise, they were softer than expected and easy to chew. As far as results, I mainly noticed gradual digestive benefits after about a week or so of consistent use. Things felt more regular and less sluggish overall, especially on days where my diet wasn’t as balanced as it should have been. The fiber content is fairly substantial for gummies, so I’d definitely recommend drinking enough water with them because increasing fiber too quickly can sometimes cause bloating at first. Starting with a smaller serving may help if you’re not used to fiber supplements. I can’t say I noticed dramatic changes with hair, skin, or nails during the time I used them, but those ingredients usually take longer to show visible effects anyway. Even without obvious cosmetic changes, the combination of biotin, collagen, keratin, and antioxidants gives the formula a more well-rounded feel compared to standard digestive gummies. Another positive is the allergen-friendly formula. Being gluten-free and free from dairy, wheat, peanuts, and eggs makes it accessible for many people with dietary restrictions. The overall ingredient profile feels thoughtfully put together instead of overloaded with unnecessary fillers. Overall, I think this works best for someone looking for an easy daily fiber supplement that also offers some additional wellness support beyond digestion alone. The biggest benefit for me was the digestive regularity and convenience factor. The beauty-support ingredients are a nice bonus, even if they may require long-term consistent use before noticeable results appear. **As always, results can vary from person to person. Consulting a healthcare provider before starting any new supplement is advisable. Keep well (:

Fiber with slight beauty benefits
This supplement definitely falls into the “everything including the kitchen sink” category. You’ve got 10g fiber, 30 billion CFU probiotics, inulin, ACV, plus collagen, biotin, keratin, and vitamins C and E, all in one gummy. In real use, the most noticeable effect is on digestion first, beauty second. The fiber and probiotics actually do seem to help with regularity and a less bloated feeling over time which to me is where this product feels most legitimate. The skin, hair, and nail claims are much harder to directly feel, and honestly those effects (if any) are usually subtle and slow anyway. The main issue is exactly what you’d expect from a formula this stacked. It’s trying to do a lot at once, so nothing is really at a high enough dose to feel targeted. It ends up being more of a general wellness gummy with a strong fiber base, rather than a serious collagen or hair supplement.Taste and convenience are good, and it’s easy to stay consistent with. But like many multi-benefit gummies, there’s a bit of a tradeoff between ease and actual potency. The gummies themselves do taste amazing and I love the texture. They’re also sugar free which is very appreciated. Overall, I’d say this makes the most sense if you want a digestive support gummy with some bonus beauty ingredients layered in, not if you’re looking for strong, noticeable hair or skin changes.

Berry-Flavored Fiber Gummies
These fiber gummies are a quick and convenient way to introduce more fiber into your diet, along with some additional supplements including keratin, vitamins, and probiotics. As these are gummies instead of pills, they're easier to take than trying to swallow whole capsules. The taste is a pleasant berry flavor. While the product packaging prominently displays blueberries, and blueberry flavor is included as one of the ingredients, none of the marketing actually lists these as being blueberry flavored. The price of these gummies ($17.24 with coupon at the time of review) is on par with other fiber supplements, but these have the added benefit of including additional supplements. For awareness, the advertised 10 grams of fiber is only achieved by taking 3 gummies, instead of the lower recommended amount of 2 (which only offers ~7 grams of fiber). After taking these for about a month I did not notice any significant changes or improvements to my digestive health, but effects will vary from person to person. If you're looking for a fiber supplement with some additional vitamins included, these are a good choice.
