The Dieffenbachia is a great plant for beginner plant parents, as they boast beautiful foliage in a variety of patterns as well as a relatively simple care routine.
Place in a window with dappled sun or a spot in the middle of a room. Or directly in a window facing west or east.Water Dieffenbachia Sterling regularly, but allow top 2-3 inches of soil to dry before watering.
Reduce watering during winter. Remember, plants slow down metabolism in lower lighting and temperatures. So if you are used to watering your Dieffenbachia Sterling weekly during summer, the same amount and frequency of water in the winter will damage the roots and cause the plant to rot.
