About Dieffenbachia 'Star Bright'
Star Bright is a narrower-leaved Dieffenbachia cultivar than most, with golden-green blades splashed in dark green patches. The narrower leaf shape gives mature plants a slightly airier, less top-heavy look than the broader-leaved cultivars in the genus.

Before you buy
- Confirm the leaf shape is narrower than typical Dieffenbachia (roughly 8-14cm wide); a broader-leaved plant may be a different variegated cultivar sold under the same name
- No live market price data is recorded; treat asking prices as seller-set rather than benchmarked
- Sap contains calcium oxalate crystals, the same irritant behind the genus's 'Dumb Cane' name; handle cuttings with care around pets and children
- Check stem nodes are firm, without soft or blackened patches
