The Dieffenbachia 'Crocodile' is a rare and striking variety of Dieffenbachia, known for its textured, scale-like leaves that resemble crocodile skin. With its deep green foliage and unique raised patterns, this plant is a standout choice for anyone looking to add an exotic touch to their indoor plant collection. Like other Dieffenbachias, it is easy to care for, making it a great option for beginners and experienced plant owners alike.

Care Guide:

Light: Prefers bright, indirect light, but can tolerate low-light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight, as it may scorch the leaves.

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Allow the top 2 inches to dry out between waterings.

Humidity: Thrives in moderate to high humidity (50%+). If the air is dry, mist occasionally or use a pebble tray.

Temperature: Ideal range is 18–27°C (65–80°F). Keep away from cold drafts and temperatures below 15°C (59°F).

Soil & Feeding: Use a well-draining potting mix with peat and perlite. Feed with a balanced liquid fertilizer every 4–6 weeks during the growing season.

Growth Habit: Can grow up to 60–90 cm (2–3 feet) tall, making it an excellent statement plant.

General Tips: Be cautious—like other Dieffenbachias, it is toxic if ingested, so keep it out of reach of pets and children.
