Feature
Dieffenbachia plants are known for its beautiful variegation, and the Reflector Dieffenbachia lives up to this reputation. The Dumb Cane Reflector has long, broad leaves in dark green with random flecks of chartreuse and a strip of yellowish-green along the midrib. Leaves grow from a central stalk, giving this plant a full and bushy appearance. These tropical plants often grow several feet tall indoors.
Best Locations For Growing Reflector Dieffenbachia
The leafy Reflector Dieffenbachia is a fast-growing plant that initially makes an excellent tabletop or mantle plant and eventually makes a beautiful floor plant. Find a spot with plenty of sunlight and space to accommodate this sizable houseplant. Dieffenbachias produce a sap that is irritating to the skin and toxic if ingested. This plant is potentially dangerous to have around young children and pets.
Reflector Dieffenbachia Sunlight Requirements
A sunny spot with bright sunlight is best for the Reflector Dieffenbachia. Abundant light promotes growth and encourages more brighter variegation. Shield the plant from direct sunlight, which can burn the leaves. Plants in medium light may become leggy and less bright in color.
Reflector Dieffenbachia Care
The Reflector Dieffenbachia is not demanding and is generally low-maintenance. Trim dead growth as necessary, but wear gloves and clean your shears before and after use to avoid exposure to the harmful sap.
Dieffenbachias need to be repotted every couple of years. When repotting, upgrade the pot to the next size with bottom drainage. Plant the Reflector Dieffenbachia in rich, moist, but well-draining potting soil.
Watering Reflector Dieffenbachia
These plants have medium water requirements, so plan to water your Reflector Dieffenbachia when the top few inches of potting soil are dry. The plant will need water every one to two weeks during the summer and two to three weeks during the winter. Check the soil dampness to determine the best time to water.
The Reflector Dieffenbachia grows well in above-average humidity. The plant naturally experiences high humidity levels in the wild and needs humid conditions to grow. The foliage will develop brown edges if the air is too dry. Use a pebble tray or humidifier to boost indoor humidity.
Feeding Reflector Dieffenbachia
Fertilize the Reflector Dieffenbachia every four weeks during the spring and summer. The boost of nutrition encourages new growth and a full form. Feed the plant using a balanced, water-soluble fertilizer.
