About the plant:
Dieffenbachia Summer Style comes from tropical and subtropical America, but even here in Europe it is a very popular plant that is grown in indoor conditions. Its dark green leaves with beautifully colored lime green fields (or the other way around, if you prefer) are larger than the palm of your hand, making the plant stand out especially as a solitary plant.
The stems tend to be massive, but given that the plant grows relatively quickly, it will probably need to be tied to a support pole after a while. With good care, you can also be rewarded with flowers that are formed from a stick wrapped in a quiver, similar to, for example, a scapula.
Like other arum plants, Diffenbachia is also poisonous because it contains calcium oxalate crystals. Poisoning after ingestion of this plant is among the most frequently reported poisonings from houseplants. A baking soda solution is recommended as first aid for ingestion or skin burns, but we hope you never need it! To be safe, put the plant out of the reach of children and pets!
Dieffenbachia Vesuvius impresses with its white-green oblong leaves. The more light the plant receives, the more colorful the leaves will be. Its appearance may resemble aglaonema.

Delivery to the address by courier
We ship live plant orders Monday through Thursday. If we are unable to prepare your order during these days, we will ship it again the following week. We want to avoid plants sitting in the warehouse for too long, which is especially important during the winter months when cold conditions can be detrimental to them.
Individual shipping prices:
1. DPD
The day before delivery, a DPD courier will contact you with the exact delivery date. If you would like to redirect the shipment to a pick-up point, you can arrange this directly with the carrier. However, we strongly recommend not redirecting to pick-up boxes during the winter months, as low temperatures can damage the plants. In such a case, we cannot be held responsible for the condition of the plants and no claims will be accepted.
The price of delivery of plants and accessories throughout the Czech Republic is 149 CZK, and to Slovakia it is 8 €.

In such a case, we are not responsible for the condition of the plants and the claim will not be accepted.
