The genus dieffenbachia belongs to the Araceae family and is named after the Austrian gardener Joseph Dieffenbach, who worked in the botanical garden of the Schönbrunn Palace in Vienna. This genus includes more than 60 species, many of which are popular with indoor gardeners:

• dieffenbachia Bauze with marbled yellowish-green oval leaves;
• dieffenbachia Oerstedii, which has pointed or heart-shaped green leaves;
• Dieffenbachia Seguinii, which has wide leaves with 9-12 lateral veins.

These and other varieties of the plant are grown in almost any conditions and delight with their decorative qualities for many years. But they should not be allowed to bloom if you want to keep the lush foliage, since after flowering new leaves will not grow and the trunk will become bare.

Lighting requirements depend on the variety of flower. Dieffenbachia with spotted leaves needs a lot of light, it is better to place it closer to the window, protecting it from direct sunlight with a transparent curtain. But species and varieties with uniformly green leaves feel good in partial shade, they can be placed quite far from windows.
Watering depends on the season. In summer, dieffenbachia requires frequent and abundant watering, in winter - rare and moderate.

Remember that excess moisture is harmful to the plant, and if water remains on the tray, the watering rate should be reduced.
