    😍 What a lush foliage! I wonder if she is nervous that you might want to trim it down. 😅

      Her bushy foliage is too beautiful to trim!

        And too dangerous to put in the mouth. 😒

            Reading Wikipedia, some of the side effects don’t sound miserable: “contact with Dieffenbachia (typically from chewing) can cause a host of unpleasant symptoms, including …, excessive drooling, and localized swelling” Although most of them are less benign. Anyway, nice house plant, nicer body.
