With big, eye-catching leaves, it's no wonder Dieffenbachia Carina is such a popular houseplant. They're easy to care for, love growing tall, and are more than happy to hang out in medium-light conditions. Fortunately, most Dumb Canes wont need pruning, but if you want to propagate, it usually takes quite well.

Plant Bio

The Dieffenbachia Carina is one of the most popular houseplants because of its gorgeous leaves and vibrant colors. They're easy to care for, love growing tall, and are more than happy to hang out in medium-light conditions. A must have!

Roots

Native to Mexico, this genus was named after Herr Joseph Dieffenbach, head gardener at the Royal Palace Gardens.

Fun Facts

Funnily enough, it's known as 'Dumb Cane' because it has a mildly poisoning effect that, if ingested, temporarily numbs your mouth. Please don't try this at home :P

Customer Reviews

Beautiful and Healthy

My plant arrived very full and healthy looking. I took off 1 point because it did not arrive with the care instructions.

Nice plant!

I really like this plant and the pot it arrived in! I took off one star because 1/3 of the leaves were yellowing or browning. I’m in the belief that this took place during transport. However, I did order two other plants (different species) at the same time and they were perfectly fine. Thankfully, the other 2/3 of the leaves seem healthy enough right now for the plant to do well.
