The markings become more pronounced as the plant matures, and the leaves are carried on a thick, upright stem that builds into a full, leafy plant. It is a reliable way to add bold \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/growtropicals.com\/collections\/dieffenbachia\"\u003eDieffenbachia\u003c\/a\u003e foliage to a room without needing a sunny window.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigins\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDumb canes are aroids from the tropical forests of Central and South America and the Caribbean, where they grow in the shade of taller trees. 'Sublime' is a cultivated variety, usually attributed to \u003cem\u003eDieffenbachia seguine\u003c\/em\u003e, the species behind most dumb canes.

It copes with a shadier spot, but in too little light the cream fades and the leaves turn plainer, and direct sun scorches them. Water thoroughly once the top few centimetres of compost have dried, and water less in winter; soggy compost is the usual cause of yellow leaves and root rot. It appreciates humidity, so mist it or stand it on a pebble tray in a heated room. Keep it warm, above 15C, and away from draughts and radiators. The sap contains calcium oxalate crystals that burn the mouth and irritate skin and eyes, so wear gloves when handling it and keep it away from pets and children. Our Jungle Mix suits it, and it sits easily among our other \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/growtropicals.com\/collections\/houseplants\"\u003ehouseplants\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GrowTropicals","offers":[{"title":"12cm","offer_id":59135499633023,"sku":"DIEFSUBL12","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/growtropicals.com\/products\/dieffenbachia-sublime","provider":"GrowTropicals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
