About Dieffenbachia 'Reflector'
Reflector carries a dark green leaf densely speckled with small cream and light-green flecks, a finer and more evenly distributed pattern than the bold centre-stripe or blotchy styles of other Dieffenbachia cultivars. The dense flecking gives the leaf surface a shimmering quality in good light, which is where the cultivar's name comes from.

Before You Buy
Species-specific things to check when evaluating a listing
- Confirm the pattern is fine, dense speckling rather than a bold centre-stripe or blotchy pattern; the speckled look is Reflector's distinguishing trait against other Dieffenbachia cultivars
- Ask for a photo in good light: the flecking is described as giving a shimmering quality that's easiest to judge under bright conditions
- Sap contains calcium oxalate crystals, a genuine mouth/throat irritant if chewed; standard Dieffenbachia caution applies
- Check stem nodes are firm, without soft or blackened patches
Where the Name Comes From
Reflector's pattern is genuinely different from the bold centre-stripe cultivars like Camille: instead of one large cream block, it's densely speckled with small cream and light-green flecks spread evenly across a dark green leaf, which is what gives it a shimmering quality in good light and, presumably, its name. It's a finer, busier pattern than most Dieffenbachia carry, and worth a photo in decent light before buying if the shimmer effect is the reason you're interested, since flat lighting in a listing photo tends to flatten it out.
