	Dieffenbachia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Dieffenbachia is a genus of tropical plants in the Family Araceae noted for their patterned leaves.
		If a leaf is chewed, these crystals cause a burning sensation in the mouth and throat; swelling can occur along with a temporary inability to speak, and from this effect the plants are commonly called dumb cane or the mother-in-law plant (other names include Galatea and Leopard Lily).
		Slaves were sometimes punished by having dieffenbachia put into their mouths.

	Effects of Lime Source on pH of Growing Medium During Production of Dieffenbachia maculata 'Camille'
		The experiment began on October 23, 1992, when tissue cultured liners of Camille dieffenbachia were transplanted, one per pot, into 6-inch (15-cm) containers.
		Camille dieffenbachia were graded three months after transplanting, on February 26, and again six months after transplanting, on May 26, 1993.
		Plant grade of Camille dieffenbachia grown in medium containing no calcium supplements or dolomite (the control group) was much lower compared to plant grade of Camille getting dolomite or any of the treatments getting a supplement only.
