Dieffenbachia 'Nocturne-perlata' care

Dieffenbachia 'Nocturne-perlata' is a forgiving choice for most rooms, developing a vining spreader within its first year.

It does best in low to medium light, though it tolerates brief departures without sulking. It prefers to be watered weekly in summer and fortnightly in winter, and it will forgive a missed week far better than a doubled one.

It is happiest at average room humidity, potted in a free-draining cactus-leaning mix. It is mildly irritating to pets if chewed, so shelve it accordingly.
