Tall, architectural canes carry broad leaves painted with creamy splashes and lime freckles on a deep green canvas. ‘Big Ben’ reads bold yet refined—great for living rooms, lobbies, or a statement corner that needs height and luminous patterning.

Foliage & Habit

• Botanical: Dieffenbachia ‘Big Ben’ (variegated form)
• Structure: upright, cane-forming stems with a balanced, self-supporting canopy
• Leaf character: wide, satin leaves with cream/ivory washes and chartreuse stippling
• Indoor scale: typically 60–100 cm (24–39 in) with good culture
• Safety note: keep out of reach of pets and children

Light & Placement
Prefers diffused daylight or gentle morning rays; shield from harsh noon sun to keep the pale sectors crisp. Position a meter or two from a bright window, or near sheer curtains for soft, even illumination.

Water & Substrate
Water when the upper 2–3 cm (¾–1 in) of the mix has dried back; let excess drain completely. Use a well-draining, airy substrate—think bark + pumice/perlite + coco with a modest sphagnum buffer—to keep roots oxygenated.

Climate & Feeding
Comfortable home conditions suit it well: ~50–70% humidity and 18–29 °C (65–85 °F). Feed lightly at ¼–½ strength through active months; ease off during slower growth. Quarter-turn the pot every couple of weeks for even leaf presentation.

Settle-In Guide
After positioning, step up the light gradually over 10–14 days. Expect older foliage to adjust while new leaves emerge with the clearest cream patterning and a tidy, upright stance.
