Description
Dieffenbachia, or Dumb Cane, has variegated leaves of a sufficiently large size, which look quite impressive. They are located on stems similar to the trunks of small trees, which are quite thick and juicy. The growth rate of this plant is quite high and it looks more than spectacular. Small Dieffenbachia can decorate windowsill covered from direct sun, and large plant looks stunning on the floor. It’s amazing choice among indoor plants.Growing conditions:
- lighting: it feels great on a bright windowsill with diffused sunlight. But if there is not enough light, its stem will stretch very fast and will become very thin with few leaves on the top.
- watering: use a copious amount of settled water for this plant, and reduce its amount in winter. But still make sure that the soil does not dry out.
- fertilizing: use the fertilizers once in two weeks during growing period. Dieffenbachia gives extremely positive reaction to the nitrogen-containing organic fertilizers.
- nuances: Dieffenbachia prefers high level of humidity, so it is necessary to moisturize the plant as often as possible. The temperature for growing this houseplant should vary from 70 to 80°F, but not less than 50°F. Indoors the plant can bloom each year, but only under the suitable conditions. It cannot stand sudden change in temperature and drafts. The houseplant can be repotted not too much often, once in three-four years at the end of winter or beginning of spring. If the stem is already too long, it is possible to cut it, and new shoots will appear on the stem.
