Dieffenbachia ‘Spotty’ – Variegated Dieffenbachia
Dieffenbachia ‘Spotty’ is a bold, leafy houseplant known for its beautifully speckled foliage, with soft green leaves scattered in creamy yellow and pale chartreuse markings. It’s an easy way to bring a lush, tropical feel into your space without needing loads of fuss, and works especially well for adding texture and brightness to lower light corners. Native to tropical regions of Central and South America, this evergreen houseplant is grown indoors in the UK and makes a reliable, statement foliage plant.

Plant Care
Light:
Best in bright, indirect light. Can tolerate lower light, but colours will be most vibrant in brighter spots. Avoid harsh direct sun.

Watering:
Let the top half of the soil dry out between waterings. Likes consistent moisture but hates soggy feet — filtered or rainwater is best if you can.

Temperature:
Loves warmth — aim for 18–26°C, and avoid temperatures below 15°C.

Potting:
Our A Sandy Loam mix is ideal — moisture-retentive with good drainage to keep those roots just right.

Hot tips:
Rotate regularly for even growth. If the lower leaves drop, don't panic — it's normal as it matures. Wipe leaves to keep them looking glossy and dust-free.

Pet Friendly: No
