Plant Care
☀️ Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light but also tolerates medium light conditions. Avoid direct afternoon sun, especially during Cyprus' hot summer months, as it can scorch the leaves.
💧 Water: Water when the top 3–5 cm of soil feels dry. Keep the soil lightly moist, but never allow it to become waterlogged.
💦 Humidity: Prefers medium to high humidity. It adapts well to most indoor environments, but occasional misting or a humidifier will help keep the foliage vibrant during Cyprus' dry summers.
🌡️ Temperature: Grows best between 18–30°C. Protect from temperatures below 15°C, cold drafts and direct air conditioning.
🌱 Growth: A fast-growing indoor plant that can reach 1–1.5 metres indoors with proper care.
🐾 Pet Friendly: No. Dieffenbachia is toxic to cats, dogs and humans if ingested. The sap may also cause skin irritation, so it's best to wear gloves when pruning or repotting and keep the plant out of reach of pets and young children.
