Dieffenbachia 'Camille'

home humidity, doesn't sulk if you're a few days late on water, and grows into a full, bushy shape without much help. The one real rule: it's toxic if chewed (the old name "dumb cane" comes from the mouth irritation it causes), so keep it away from pets and toddlers who taste-test. Care snapshot Light: Medium to bright indirect light keeps the cream coloring strong. It tolerates lower light, but the leaves shift greener and growth slows. Water: Water when the top inch of soil is dry, roughly weekly in the growing season. It would rather be slightly dry than soggy. Humidity: Average home humidity is fine. No special setup needed. Pet-safe: No. Toxic to cats and dogs. Chewing causes intense oral irritation; keep out of reach. What ships: A 4-inch or 6-inch plant in its nursery grow pot with a care card. Fullness and cream-to-green ratio vary plant to plant. Pairs nicely with a Snake Plant 'Zeylanica' for a low-effort corner (both are toxic to pets, so shelf them high).
