Dieffenbachia 'Tropic Marianne,' commonly known as Dumb Cane, is admired for its large, oval leaves showcasing striking cream, yellow, and green variegation. This low-maintenance houseplant thrives in bright, indirect light, which helps preserve its vibrant patterns, while direct sunlight risks leaf scorch and low light may dull the variegation. Regularly rotating the plant promotes balanced growth. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry, allowing excess to drain fully to prevent root rot, a common issue from overwatering. Note that all Dieffenbachia varieties are toxic if ingested.
