The generously proportioned, paddle-shaped leaves of Dieffenbachia 'Tropic Snow' are held on short stems and are attractively patterned with cream and green. An eye-catching and impressively-sized house plant that will add form and colour to the home or office.

Please note that the pot in the photograph is not supplied with the plant (which is sent out in a simple nursery alternative), but we have a wide and wonderful range on our website to choose from.


  • Home care:
    Keep well watered during the growing season (less so in winter) and mist it regularly with water to maintain humidity. If the leaves start to get dusty, they can be washed occasionally - either by using a damp cloth or popping it under the shower. Avoid draughts, maintain temperatures above 15°C (59°F) in winter, and repot in spring.
    • Humans/Pets: TOXIC if eaten; skin/eye irritant
