Dieffenbachia (Dieffenbachia seguine)

Dieffenbachia plants are admired for their striking foliage and variegated leaf patterns. Although they rarely flower, their white blooms can appear under ideal conditions. However, caution is advised as the plant's sap is toxic. Ingesting it can lead to severe irritation and swelling in the mouth and throat, potentially causing temporary muteness by affecting the vocal cords. If ingestion occurs, seek medical help immediately.
