If you\u2019re a newbie to the plant world or have a busy life and forget about your plants sometimes, succulents are your best bet<\/strong>. Those plants don\u2019t mind a bit of neglect, as they\u2019re naturally pretty low maintenance. But, of course, succulents are a brilliant addition for experienced plant lovers, too – they make any home look good!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you\u2019re starting your succulent collection or want to add to it, I recommend getting yourself a dolphin plant<\/a><\/strong>. The indoor plant is a hybrid of a string of pearls and a candle plant. This succulent doesn\u2019t look like your average cacti –\u00a0 it has long-hanging tendrils that make it a good choice for hanging baskets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A fair warning – once you get your hands on one dolphin plant, it\u2019s hard to limit yourself to just one. But the good news is that propagating the plant is simple!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to propagate a Dolphin Plant?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s not uncommon for plants to get their names from their appearance. For example, the pickle plant<\/a> is called the way it is because of its pickle-shaped leaves.

When it comes to propagating this plant, the process is very straightforward and doesn\u2019t require much of your energy. There are two methods you could use for cloning your string of dolphins. Either propagate it from its leaves or stem cuttings<\/a>. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dolphin Plant propagation from stem cuttings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

But if this is your first time doing it, here is a step-by-step guide to propagating a string of dolphins succulent from cuttings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
