Senecio peregrinus - 15cm Hanging Basket

The botanical name of this succulent is Senecio peregrinus. Because the plant's leaves strongly resemble dolphins, it is known as 'String of Dolphins'. Senecio peregrinus is green with stems and a trailing growth habit.

You will receive a plant in a 15cm pot, with a total height of pot and plant of approximately 20-50 cm (hanging). Caring for Senecio peregrinus is relatively easy. A mixture of cactus and succulent soil is suitable as a substrate. Senecio peregrinus does not tolerate waterlogging, so you should ensure good drainage and allow the substrate to dry out before watering again. Generally, this succulent tolerates less water rather than too much. Fertilizing can be done once a month, or every four weeks. This succulent needs a sunny and bright location to meet its light requirements. The brighter the location, the more pronounced and vibrant the colors. The optimal temperature is between 20°C and 30°C. Senecio peregrinus can spend the summer outdoors after being gradually acclimated to direct sunlight. In winter, the temperature should be around 10°C. Furthermore, fertilization is stopped and watering is reduced. However, this succulent is not suitable for the garden.
