The Dieffenbacchia is a house plant with special leaves almost as special as that funky name (dief-fen-bahhh-chii-aaa?)! There are many varieties of Dieffenbachia and all of them are equally striking. Fun fact: this plant was actually named after Mr Dieffenbach, the gardener of Empress Elisabeth of Austria, a.k.a. Sisi (not to be confused with a certain voice assistant we won't mention here to avoid instant copyright karma). Anyway, to keep things simple, we prefer to call this one Alvin.
