Description

I’m Leopard Lily, but you may know me as Dieffenbachia or Dumb Cane. My beautiful leaves are speckled with a rich and creamy yellow color to resemble that of a leopard. I am able to adapt to a wide variety of conditions in the home, making me perfect for everyone. My large lush leaves can actually help boost humidity in the air, kind of like an au natural humidifier for your space.
