Description
Dieffenbachia 'Starbright' is a vibrantly hued houseplant known for its large, elliptical, glossy leaves with mottled patterns featuring an eye-catching mix of white, yellow and shades of green as well as richly green edges. This plant is native to the tropical rainforests of Central and South America. In addition to its striking foliage, the Dieffenbachia Star Bright displays an attractive upright growth habit and its large leaves make it a perfect statement piece for any room. Adding more visual interest, the leaves taper to a point and are attached to white petioles (leaf stalks). The plant can even be grown outdoors in warm, humid climates. Your Dieffenbachia 'Starbright' will arrive fully rooted in a 6 in. pot. Dieffenbachia 'Starbright' thrives in a variety of indoor conditions. It prefers bright, indirect light and well-draining soil and should be watered when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch. Dieffenbachia 'Starbright' will tolerate lower light levels. As a tropical plant, Dieffenbachia 'Starbright' benefits from high humidity and temperatures between 60-75°F. If your household humidity is too low, you can use an humidifier, a pebble tray, or group with other houseplants. Feed with a balanced fertilizer every 4-week to 6-weeks during spring and summer during the growing season.
