How to fertilize Senecio deltoideus
Most potting soils come with ample nutrients which plants use to produce new growth.
By the time your plant has depleted the nutrients in its soil it’s likely grown enough to need a larger pot anyway.
To replenish this plant's nutrients, repot your Senecio deltoideus after it doubles in size or once a year—whichever comes first.

Can new leaves appear where leaves were lost. My poor flipper did not do well this past year. I am thinking of proping but not sure what is the best way to do this. Any advice moving forward into spring? #StringOfDolphins #happyplants #succulentlove #plantsmakepeoplehappy #succulentsquad

Is there a way to help my plant revive? She had a lot of shriveled dolphins along her vines that I had to clear and I’ve been watering it a bit more but then that white mold immediately started growing- anyone have any tips? #StringOfDolphins

String of 🐬 What’s the imbalance here?😅 my new dolphins aren’t getting the memo #WhatTheSucc #StringOfDolphins

Too much sun or not enough water? I’ve had this string of dolphins for a few weeks now. It’s in an east-facing window that gets 3-6hr of direct sunlight daily. It’s ?leaves? Are starting to shrivel. I’ve never had a string of anything before. Do you think it’s getting too much sunlight, not enough water, or both? I’ve been watering as the app indicates. It’s in a draining pot.

So excited about this Variegated String of Pearls!! I struggled last time I had a SOP when I repotted it. I had had her for 3 years and I repotted her and killed her accidentally. 😬 This time will be different!! #sop #stringofpearls #succulentsquad #succulents #succulentlove #happyplants #plantaddict #succulent
