Know before you buy
This plant has an upright growth habit and can reach up to six feet in height. Because it serves as a striking floor plant, it is best placed in a corner or an open area where it has room to grow vertically without being crowded.
No, this plant is toxic if ingested. It is best kept in a location that is inaccessible to cats, dogs, or small children.
The Tropic Snow thrives in bright, indirect light. While it can tolerate medium light, bright indirect light is essential to keep the buttery yellow and lime green patterns on the leaves vibrant.
This plant prefers a low-maintenance watering schedule. You should allow the soil to dry out significantly between waterings to prevent root rot, as it does not like to sit in soggy soil.
It prefers medium humidity levels, which are typical for most indoor environments. If your home is particularly dry, especially during winter, you may want to place it near a humidifier or on a pebble tray.
You should plan to repot your Dieffenbachia every three years. Spring is the ideal time to refresh the soil and move it to a slightly larger container if the roots have become crowded.
