It sports a beautiful camouflage pattern in different shades of green, ranging from lime to almost yellow and deep emerald. Definitely a wishlist-worthy plant.
‘Camille’ is easily told apart from its parent plant by its leaf pattern. Rather than speckled foliage, it sports solid cream coloration on the inside of the leaves.
The relatively small leaves grow closer together than in ‘normal’ types of Dieffenbachias, and the plant also tends to produce more offshoots. All this makes for a small plant but a rather wild look!
I just love speckled Dieffenbachias, and its pattern is exactly what makes ‘Mars’ (which is not dissimilar to ‘Reflector’ in terms of looks) so spectacular.
Yep, there’s a whole squad of ‘Tropic’ Dieffenbachias! It all appears to have started in 1967, when a patent was requested by a nursery in Florida (where most houseplants are grown in the US, thanks to the favorable climate).
