The String of Dolphins can be grown indoors and outdoors. This plant grows well in bright light and some direct sunlight. When the plant is dormant it does prefer a little cooler condition. Like most succulents the String of Dolphins requires little water due to the ability to store water in its leaves, making it a low maintenance plant.
