What You Receive
1 x Dieffenbachia Camilla (Dumb Cane) supplied in a 3Ltr root ball, ready for potting into your chosen container.
Care Guide
Dieffenbachia Camilla is a straightforward plant to care for. It thrives in bright, indirect light but is also shade tolerant, making it versatile enough for lower-light rooms. Avoid placing in direct sunlight, as this may cause the leaves to turn yellow.
Water when the top 2–3cm of soil feels dry, and always ensure good drainage to prevent overwatering. This tropical plant prefers warm temperatures between 16–27°C and appreciates moderate humidity.
When your Dieffenbachia outgrows its container, repot in spring using well-draining houseplant compost. Propagation is simple — stem cuttings root easily in water or moist compost.
