Question
Hi there !
I was vistiting someone in NH & noticed a trailing potted plant that had red flowers that looked like dolphins. The only info they could give me was that it was referred to as the "dolphin plant" that it could be tropical & that she thought it grew all over Florida. Do you know what this might be called & where I can get one ????

Thanks !
Sally

Answer
Sally,

I have never heard of a dolphin plant nor could I find any info on the internet referring to a plant by that name. I imagine that it is a variety of Goldfish plant (Nematanthus glabra.  Take a look at the picture at:

You will have to scroll about half way down the page to see the picture. If that is it llet me know and I will find some mail order sources for you. You might call around to local florists in your area, they sometimes carry them or can get them. Good luck.
