ABOUT OUR DIEFFENBACHIA

Hey, I’m Conrad the dieffenbachia. My name is quite a mouthful so everybody calls me the dumb cane plant. Don’t let my name mislead you, I'm actually a very smart plant and very easy to take care of. My speckled green variegation is simply stunning to look at ,but be careful to not place me close to any bright windows - too much sunlight will cause my variegation to fade.

You can find me and the other 50 species of dumb cane in places like Mexico and the Caribbean. I was first discovered in South America in the 1830s by the head gardener of Vienna’s royal Palace Gardens, a man called Joseph Dieffenbach, and from whom I take my name.

My distinctively marked foliage makes every single dumb cane species completely unique. Use my pretty foliage to brighten up a study or home office.

Baby height (including nursery pot) 25cm; pot diameter 9cm.

Medium height (including nursery pot) 70-75cm; pot diameter 17cm.

DID YOU KNOW?

South American indigenous people would use the sap in dieffenbachia leaves to poison their enemies. If ingested, the sap would cause throat irritation for at least a week.

Conrad's perfectly sized to be placed on a mantelpiece, bookshelf or dresser. Keep him high out of reach of young children and pets.


QUICK DIEFFENBACHIA PLANT CARE

Conrad is a shade loving plant and will continue to thrive over the winter months when sunlight is minimal.

LIGHTING

I prefer a shadier spot but will tolerate a medium light providing my leaves don’t receive any direct sunlight.

WATERING

Allow my soil to dry out in between each watering. I’m happy if my soil is on the drier side but look out for yellow leaves as this could be a sign I’m underwatered.

HUMIDITY

I much prefer higher levels of humidity, so keep me by a humidifier or place a pebble tray underneath my pot.

FERTILISER

Fertilise me once a month in the growing season, from March to September.

THINGS WE ALWAYS GET ASKED

How much sunlight does a dieffenbachia need?

Dieffenbachias do not need much sunlight to thrive. The dumb cane is an excellent winter plant because of his tolerance for lower or medium lighting. He won’t complain if less sunlight is available in the winter months.

How do you care for a dieffenbachia plant?

The best care for the dumb cane plant is medium lighting, high humidity and warm temperatures. As Conrad is from tropical forests in the Americas, he’ll benefit from filtered light or partial shade. He likes lots of moisture on his leaves so placing him next to a humidifier will help keep his foliage fresh. Allow the first three inches of soil to dry out before you water him again; you’ll notice his foliage will start to droop when he’s ready for his next drink.

How big does a dumb cane plant get?

Dumb cane plants are considered very fasting growing and will push out new growth all year round providing the indoor temperatures stay warm. The dumb cane can grow up to a metre tall in your home and over two metres in their normal outdoor habitat.

PLANT STYLING TIPS

​There is beauty in simplicity and Conrad has no bells nor whistles but is sure to be the centre of attention. His leaves can be toxic if ingested so keep him on a high table in the study or office. Conrad’s air purifying magic touch will clean the toxins in the air while you are hard at work.

Complement Conrad’s beauty with a power or knowledge crystal to help you conquer the working day.

Don’t waste your money or time!
Color: White, Size: Standard - 4 Panel
Don’t waste your money. The instructions make no sense and the metal poles are either sized wrong for the product or screw holes are incorrectly placed, but no two poles matched in size and placement making it impossible to put this together without the panels being warped. No matter how I tried to switch the poles to see if I had them wrong, they always turned out warped and incorrectly fit. I finally gave up and threw everything out - I wasted $50 on this junk and because I didn’t try to put it together immediately after I bought it, it is way too late for a refund. Lesson learned!

Sturdiness
Color: Black, Size: Standard - 4 Panel
Not so sturdy. It worked well for its intended job, but, it has to be secured to the floor for long term use.

Wobbly but Usable
Color: Grey, Size: Standard - 4 Panel
A bit wobbly, but good enough for the price when you need a solid background for remote work calls.

Nice and easy to assemble
Color: Black, Size: Standard - 4 Panel
I absolutely love this 4-panel room divider! It was super easy to assemble — I had it set up in just a few minutes. The material isn’t too see-through, which gives just the right amount of privacy while still letting some light through. It does exactly what I needed it to do and looks so clean and sleek in my space. Perfect balance of style and function — highly recommend!
