Light Requirements:

Dieffenbachia White Etna thrives best in bright, indirect light, where its vibrant leaf variegation can shine. While it can handle medium light, too little light will reduce the boldness of its leaf pattern.

Light Tips:

• Keep it near an east or north-facing window with filtered sun.

• Avoid placing it in harsh, direct sunlight, which may burn the leaves.

• Performs well in indoor offices with natural or artificial lighting.

Watering & Humidity Needs:

White Etna enjoys evenly moist soil but dislikes being soggy. Let the top 1–2 inches of soil dry out between waterings.

Humidity Tips:

• Loves moderate to high humidity — typical indoor air is often enough.

• Mist leaves weekly or place near a humidifier during dry seasons.

• Ensure the pot has good drainage to prevent root rot.

Ideal Temperature Range:

Best kept in temperatures between 65°F and 80°F (18°C to 27°C).
Keep away from cold drafts or open windows during winter months.

Pet Safety Note:

Toxic if ingested by pets or humans due to calcium oxalate crystals.
Keep out of reach of cats, dogs, and curious children.

Care & Maintenance Tips:

• Wipe leaves regularly with a damp cloth to remove dust and boost photosynthesis.

• Fertilize once a month during spring and summer with balanced houseplant food.

• Rotate the plant every few weeks for even exposure and symmetrical growth.

• Repot every 1–2 years if it outgrows its container.

Dieffenbachia White Etna is a resilient plant that forgives the occasional missed watering or imperfect lighting, making it a great choice for anyone wanting tropical drama with minimal maintenance.
