String of Turtles - Peperomia Prostrata
Jackie
Adorable

I received my string of turtle today, though I ordered a small one most of the leaves look healthy and happy I kind of wish it had a few more strands but I’m going to work hard to make sure it’s happy and healthy! For winter protection they wrapped it in cotton I’m super happy with all my plants so far!

Stromanthe Triostar – Colourful Indoor Houseplant
Mary Belanger
Breathtaking!

The Stromanthe Triostar was the last plant I unwrapped from my second order from mygreenscape.ca. I gasped when I saw this beautiful plant with its long leaves of dark and light pink and green. The underside of the leaves are deep pink. And it has some stripes, especially underneath. She is very healthy and has a few new leaves unfurling. All the plants were packaged up very well. Thanks so much!

ZZ Plant

My ZZ :-)

I'm so happy to have received this ZZ plant. Originally I ordered four plants, then after looking at my order I realized 2 of the same plant was in my cart. So I contacted Mygreenscape.ca and it was just in time as the shipment hadn't gone out yet. So I was advised I could pick another plant so that is how I became a plant parent for my ZZ :-) I'm grateful for the kindness I received -Thank you Imtiaz!
This is a very healthy plant. It's tall with interesting and shiny leaves. So nice to have this plant. Thanks Mygreenscape.ca
p.s. I want to purchase the ZZ Raven with my next order.

How to Care for Dieffenbachia Indoors

Water your dieffenbachia when the top 1-2 inches of soil feel dry. That's usually every 7-10 days in summer, and every 14-21 days in winter. But let it dry out a touch between drinks. Soggy soil triggers root rot fast. And always pour off water that sits in the saucer after 30 minutes.

Common Dieffenbachia Problems and Quick Fixes

Yellow leaves near the base usually mean overwatering or very low light. Check if the soil stays soggy for days. If yes, let it dry out fully before the next drink. And move the pot closer to an east or west window. Trim yellow leaves at the base so the plant redirects energy.

Brown crispy tips mean dry air, fluoride in tap water, or salt buildup from fertilizer. So raise humidity to 50% with a small humidifier. And switch to filtered or rainwater. Flush the pot with plain water every 3 months to wash out salts. Snip brown tips at an angle for a clean look.

Sudden leaf drop points to cold drafts or a temperature swing. Keep your plant above 18°C and away from AC vents, exterior doors, and single-pane windows. And in Canadian winters, move it at least 30 cm from any cold glass. Droopy stems often perk up within 24 hours once the temperature steadies.

Spider mites love dry Canadian winters. Check under leaves for fine webbing and tiny pale stippling. Wipe leaves with a cloth dipped in neem oil weekly for 3 weeks. And root rot smells sour and turns stems mushy at the base. Unpot, trim black roots, and repot in fresh well-draining mix.

Dieffenbachia Plant FAQs

Yes. Dieffenbachia is toxic to pets and people. The ASPCA lists it as toxic to cats and dogs. Leaves contain calcium oxalate crystals that burn the mouth, tongue, and throat if chewed. So keep the plant on a high shelf or hanging stand. And wash your hands after pruning. For pet-safe options, browse our other collections.

Check the soil first. Water when the top 1-2 inches feel dry. That's roughly every 7-10 days in spring and summer. But it drops to every 14-21 days through a Canadian winter. Use room-temperature filtered or rainwater. And always empty the saucer after 30 minutes.

Yellow leaves usually mean overwatering, root rot, or too little light. Feel the soil. If it's soggy, hold off and let it dry out. And move the plant closer to an east or west window. If the lower stem feels mushy, unpot and trim the rotted roots right away.

It survives in low light, but it won't thrive. Leaves get smaller, stems stretch thin, and the variegation fades. So aim for bright indirect light near a sheer-curtained window. And for darker Canadian winters, a basic LED grow bulb on a timer keeps the colour strong.

Indoors, most dieffenbachia varieties reach 60-180 cm over 2-3 years. Compact picks like Camille stay under 90 cm. But tall growers like Panther push past 150 cm with good light. So match the variety to your ceiling height and pot size. And stake tall stems if they start to lean.
