Care
Lighting Requirement:

Watering & Humidity:
Water the plant when the top 1-2 inches of soil are dry. Ensure the pot has good drainage to prevent waterlogging and root rot. Dieffenbachia 'Bright Star' prefers moderate humidity, so occasional misting or a humidity tray can help maintain optimal moisture levels and support healthy growth.
Temperature Requirement:
The ideal temperature range for Dieffenbachia 'Bright Star' is between 65-80°F (18-27°C). It should be protected from cold drafts and temperatures below 50°F (10°C) to keep it healthy and vibrant.
