HOW TO GROW DIEFFENBACHIA HOUSEPLANTS

It will tolerate low-light spots but likes to be in medium light. Make sure to water regularly but don’t soak the soil.

LIGHT

Bright light, no direct sun. Give the plant a quarter turn every few days to expose all sides to sunlight and encourage even growth.
