The Dieffenbachia, also known as the dumb cane plant, is a large, lush, plant that\u2019s a perfect addition to any office or room. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Easy-to-care-for and highly attractive, Dieffenbachia (Dumb Cane) plants are a popular choice among plant enthusiasts, as well as those just discovering their green thumb. Dumb Cane plants are versatile, ranging from large in size (floor plants) to small (perfect for table or desktops). This timeless plant is a classic, and with so many varieties, there\u2019s certainly something that will fit into your office decor. In this blog post, we\u2019ll share a few different varieties of this plant so you can choose the best for your personal office.

Perhaps you have a small <a href=\"https:\/\/www.deprolabs.com\/blog\/work-from-home\/\">home office<\/a> and don\u2019t have a ton of room for floor plants. In that case, there are still varieties that will suit your space. This list of Dieffenbachia varieties is by no means comprehensive. We\u2019ve included a few of the most popular species to get you started with this beautiful plant.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Tropic Snow<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tropic snow is a large size variety of Dieffenbachia, with white and green leaves that add texture to any office.

This plant doesn\u2019t need to be fully exposed to direct light, but don\u2019t want a dark space either. Place your plant on a shelf or on your desk, close to a window but not directly in the sunbeams. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.epicgardening.com\/dieffenbachia-dumb-cane-plant\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some Dieffenbachia even prefers <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">less<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> light<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, such as the Camille variety. According to <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.epicgardening.com\/dieffenbachia-dumb-cane-plant\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">EpicGardening.com<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, 2 &#8211; 5 inches away from a window is a sweet spot for Dieffenbachia. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How Much Water Should I Give My Dumb Cane Plant?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To avoid overwatering your plant, let its soil get quite dry before completely drenching it again. Dieffenbachia also does best with pots with drainage, as root rot is not uncommon with these plants.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How to Tell If You\u2019re Overwatering Your Plant<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are a few different ways to tell if your Dieffenbachia is consuming too much water. Leaves should be green and cream colored. If you notice your Dumb Cane leaves are yellowing and dropping off the bottom, it\u2019s likely that the plant is consuming too much water. If the plant is rotting at the base, it may be overwatered, as well. Don\u2019t forget your pot with drainage, and even better, get to know your plant and how much water it needs. The lush leaves are a huge pay off when you give your plant the proper amount of water!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Are Dieffenbachia Plants Toxic?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While Dumb Cane is common in many households and offices, owners should be careful about toxicity. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thegardeningcook.com\/dieffenbachia-poisoning\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dieffenbachia plants contain needle-shaped oxalate crystals<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> which can harm animals and children if consumed. If your office is child or pet-friendly, Dieffenbachia plants may not be the best option for you. If your office is free of any animals or kids who may try to snag a bite, you should be good to go. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dieffenbachia Plants Are a Great Addition to Any Office<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So what do you think, ready to add a Dieffenbachia to your office?
