🌱 Care Tips for String of Dolphins 🌱
1. Light: Loves bright, indirect light with some gentle direct sun. Too little light can cause the dolphin shapes to stretch out.
2. Water: Let the soil dry out completely between waterings. Water deeply, but avoid letting it sit in soggy soil.
3. Soil: Needs a well-draining succulent or cactus mix.
4. Humidity: Prefers dry air—no misting needed!
5. Feeding: Feed once a month in spring and summer with a diluted cactus fertilizer.
6. Pruning: Trim any leggy or sparse strands to keep it looking lush and to encourage bushier growth.
7. Pet Safety: Mildly toxic if ingested—keep away from curious pets and kiddos.
