Description
Dieffenbachia 'Camille features leaves that are outlined in dark green with wide creamy white coloring down the mid-rib of the leaves.
It is a perennial herbaceous plant, with stems eruded and fleshy, that is cultivated by its decorative leaves. This plant is pretty versatile at different life stages, but can last very long-term as an attractive house plant that grows into more of a tree form.
NASA tests confirm that Dieffenbachia removes xylene and toluene from the air.
Environment
Dieffenbachia, most varieties do best in a filtered light situation. When this houseplant is producing new, tender leaves, they are subject to sunburn if the light is too bright or shines directly on the plant. Rotate the dieffenbachia houseplant regularly to provide adequate light to all sides of the plant and prevent it from reaching toward the light on one side.
Plant the dumbcane in a well-draining soil and water lightly, keeping the soil consistently moist, but not soggy. Check the soil to make sure it is dry an inch down before watering the plant.
Fertilize twice a month to encourage growth and a healthy plant.
Landscape Use
Suitable for interior decoration in home & Office space
Note
Avoid placing the dumbcane plant where curious children or pets might be tempted to taste it.
