Can dieffenbachia be planted outside?
Keeping this in view, is dieffenbachia an indoor or outdoor plant?
Dieffenbachia is a tropical plant that grows well indoors in lots of indirect light. It can tolerate low light, but its growth will slow dramatically. Gardeners living in zones 11 and 12 can grow dieffenbachia outdoors in partial shade, where it makes a great landscape plant.
Regarding this, how do you take care of a dieffenbachia plant?
Overwatering is a common problem with many houseplants and the dieffenbachia houseplant is no exception. Plant the dumbcane in a well-draining soil and water lightly, keeping the soil consistently moist, but not soggy. Check the soil to make sure it is dry an inch down before watering the dieffenbachia plant.
Dieffenbachia is a tropical plant and it will die if left outside in cold weather, so it is usually grown as a container plant. As with most plants, this one is not best started in water. For most people it is easiest to purchase a small plant and grow it on in a pot, moving it to larger pots as it grows.
