The Bicolor Dragon tree, known as Dracaena marginata ‘Bicolor’) is a vibrant and easygoing tropical plant known for its sword-like foliage striped with shades of green and reddish-pink, making it a popular choice for modern indoor and outdoor plantings. With its upright growth, striking color contrast, and low-maintenance nature, it has become a favorite among homeowners, interior designers, and collectors looking to add tropical flair to spaces without the upkeep of more delicate species. 

Commonly referred to as the Bicolor Dragon Tree or Bicolor Dracaena, this cultivar belongs to the broader Dracaena marginata species, also known as the Madagascar Dragon Tree. The "Bicolor" name comes from its dramatic two-toned leaves, which display a rich green center edged with pinkish-red or burgundy margins. Its variegation is more subtle than the ‘Tricolor’ or ‘Kiwi’ varieties, but still provides vivid color and a bold vertical accent in any setting.

Native to the island of Madagascar off the southeastern coast of Africa, Dracaena marginata grows naturally in warm, semi-arid forests.

Although the ‘Bicolor’ variant is a cultivated hybrid, it retains the species’ natural tolerance for drought, variable light conditions, and poor soils, making it especially resilient and adaptable to indoor conditions around the world.

This tropical evergreen features slender, upright canes topped with dense tufts of long, narrow leaves.

The foliage of the ‘Bicolor’ is what sets it apart—long, pointed blades with clean green centers and striking red-to-pink margins that glow under bright, indirect light.

Over time, the lower leaves naturally shed, leaving behind bare stems that resemble a miniature palm or cane tree, making it ideal for vertical appeal in tight spaces.

When grown indoors, the Bicolor Dragon Tree typically reaches 4 to 6 feet tall, but with time and care, it may grow taller.

Outdoors in tropical climates or when grown in containers and moved seasonally, it can reach up to 8 feet or more.

Its slow growth rate makes it manageable and easy to shape with light pruning. While flowering is rare indoors, mature plants may occasionally produce small clusters of fragrant white flowers in optimal conditions. 

When it comes to Dracaena marginata ‘Bicolor’ care, it thrives in a well-drained  soil, opens in a new tab and prefers watering every 10–14 days during the growing season (spring to summer), allowing the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry out between waterings. In fall and winter, water only once every 2–3 weeks.

Indoors, it grows best in temperatures between 65°F and 80°F, with at least 6 hours of bright, indirect light daily.

Outdoors, it should be grown in USDA Zones 10–12, where it prefers partial shade or filtered sunlight to prevent leaf scorch.

Fertilize once a year during spring using a balanced liquid NPK fertilizer diluted to half strength.

Occasional pruning of yellowing or lower leaves helps maintain its clean form, and taller plants can be cut back to encourage bushier growth. 

What makes the ‘Bicolor’ cultivar unique is its perfect balance of visual interest and resilience. Unlike many colorful houseplants that require precise humidity or specialized light, this Dragon Tree variant is remarkably forgiving. Its ability to tolerate missed waterings, low humidity, and low light makes it ideal for beginners, busy plant owners, or even office environments. Additionally, it's known for its air-purifying properties, helping reduce pollutants like formaldehyde and benzene in the indoor air. 

Final Thoughts

Overall, the Bicolor Dragon Tree offers a compelling combination of bold color, architectural form, and worry-free care. Whether you're styling a minimalist room, refreshing your patio container garden, or just looking for a tough plant that looks good year-round, Dracaena marginata ‘Bicolor’ delivers. Its colorful edges and upright form add a tropical touch to any space while demanding very little in return.

Good beverage choice to mix your colonoscopy prep powder in.
Flavor Name: Kiwi Strawberry, Size: 16.9 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
In preparation for a colonoscopy I was allowed to mix the required prep powder in any flavored water beverage that replenishes electrolytes as long as the color was clear. I dislike water and am not good at drinking the daily minimum requirement. I had to find something I could tolerate especially with my having to drink 64 ounces in a matter of a few hours. So I started my Amazon search and based on the reviews, I purchased both the Propel Strawberry-Kiwi and the Melon flavors. I was taking a chance that at least one of the two flavors would work for me. The Strawberry-Kiwi albeit on the sweet side surprisingly tasted good after I added a ton of ice and made slushes. I really didn’t taste the Kiwi but the strawberry came through. The melon was less sweet but I did not get a real taste of melon flavor, just a hint. Since I only needed 64 ounces and each bottle is 16 oz, I only had to use 4 of the 24 bottles I purchased leaving me with 20. I’m going to continue making slushes but plan on adding fresh strawberries and melon to the mix and this way hopefully drink more while getting electrolytes. One Amazon review I read was by a couple who drank Propel daily and really felt sluggish if they skipped a day. I am hoping that by the end of consuming 20 bottles, I will also see a difference in my energy levels. The cost of Propel was extremely reasonable compared to like brands that in my opinion weren’t any different except for price. Even though Propel is sugar free, it does contain sucralose. As a I diabetic, I am not supposed to have any sugar substitutes other than stevia, but since sucralose is not one of the primary ingredients, and pretty far down the ingredient list, those 64 ounces I drank had a minimal (if any) effect on my blood sugar.

LAVAZZA
Flavor Name: Espresso, Size: 35.2 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This is my go-to coffee for a smooth, rich espresso every morning. The medium roast has a perfect balance without any bitter aftertaste. Since they are whole beans, the freshness and aroma are top-notch once ground. It’s a great value for a high-quality 100% Arabica blend!

The Best Coffee Beans in the World for the Price
Flavor Name: Espresso, Size: 35.2 Ounce (Pack of 1)
First of all, my headline is an opinion. I understand that coffee is beloved by most of humanity and that it engenders strong opinions, so don't be offended if you disagree. Let me state my case and build some background and context: 1. I drink coffee black. If folks are putting cream and sugar into their coffee, or making espresso drinks with milk like lattes or Cappuccinos, I feel as though they don't have to worry quite as much about things like acidity/bitterness in coffee because milk changes the taste a lot. If you also drink coffee black, this review is perfect for you. 2.. This review is meant for people who intend to brew these coffee beans with a classic Drip Coffee Maker or a French Press. This is because these are the only methods I've used to brew the coffee. While these beans from Lavazza are called "Espresso Roast Coffee", that does not mean they can only be used for Espresso. If a coffee roaster labels something an "Espresso Roast", it simply means that roaster believes the beans would do well when prepared as an Espresso. That does not mean it can't also be used via other preparation methods. There is a little picture/symbol on the front of the package that indicates this is also good when prepared as Drip Coffee or via French Press. 2. While this particular "Espresso Roast" is not the only type of coffee beans from Lavazza that can be used for drip coffee, I would recommend sticking to varieties that are labeled "100% arabica." There are two types of coffee beans: Arabica and Robusta. Like anything else, you could Google this and find 2 full pages of info to read regarding the differences between these two bean types. But the easiest breakdown seems to be that Robusta beans are more intense (or robust, guess it's in the name) but often more bitter. The bitterness especially becomes present when the coffee is slowly brewed as drip coffee. This is why Lavazza has lots of varieties so you would need to use their website to determine the full list of products they sell that are 100% arabica. You will see that they only have the icon indicating the coffee is good to be prepared as drip coffee for their 100% arabica blends, going along with what I'm saying. 3. Going back to point 2, this is what makes Lavazza Whole Bean Espresso Roast so amazing. There is simply no bitterness regardless of how strong you make it. When you look at Lavazza's description of tasting notes for this blend, they mention Floral and fruity notes. This is where I always feel dumb as I don't personally get those notes. For me it's extremely rich, full bodied, and I get those nice chocolatey, roasty notes. I don't mean like dark chocolate or deeply roasted notes like I would get from a dark roast, because you can clearly tell it's a medium roast. More of a milk chocolate type of flavor profile. I definitely don't get the fruity/floral notes Lavazza mentions, which for me is good as those are not my preferred flavors. I'm not saying that those listed flavor notes are purely just subjective or matter of opinion, but I taste what I taste. At the end of the day, in my mind what makes the coffee quality is that even when you brew it much stronger than what you might say is average, there's simply no acidity or bitterness. If you purchase the 2.2 pound bag and drink this coffee for a month straight (or however long the bag lasts) and then go back to major American brands, like ones with initials like SB or DD, the acidity and bitterness will become obvious immediately. 4. Regarding point 3, am I saying there are no American Coffee Brands or American Coffee Roasters that make good coffee that isn't bitter and acidic? No I'm not. What I'm saying is that those will be boutique coffee roasters or smaller brands that will be much more expensive than this Lavazza Coffee. Are there any big American Coffee Brands that make coffee like Lavazza? I'm saying NO. Flat out, unequivocally, no. Lavazza is a billion dollar Italian brand. I love to support local companies when possible, but they are not going to be price competitive with Lavazza. So as your everyday coffee, if price is important to you like it is to most, then obviously it's all about finding the best for the cheapest. Queue this coffee. 5. This coffee should run you no more than $18 full price for 2.2 pounds as of December 2024. You may occasionally see it priced higher, this means it's sold out through Lavazza directly and a third party seller has jacked up the price. I would not purchase the coffee from any other seller than Lavazza so watch out for that. Just as importantly, YOU DO NOT have to pay $18 every time if you watch for sales. There are frequent sales of anywhere from $2-$5. So you can get this for as cheap as $13 which is an absolute steal for 2.2 pounds of this glorious coffee. It's still a great deal at $18 for the quality, but at $13 or $14 it's the ultimate no brainer. Maybe order 2 bags when it's on sale. 6. You don't get to control how fresh the beans are when you receive them which sucks. But to Lavazza's credit, they often arrive within 6 weeks of the packaging date. This is also to their credit: They have the date the beans were packaged on the side, not just the expiration date. The key thing to know is that there is indeed a big difference if you are drinking 4-6 week old beans (never got them fresher than that) vs 3 or 4 month old beans. The difference in freshness is pronounced both in the taste and even more so the smell. This is just the reality of ordering this coffee at this amazing price, have to trust you will get it relatively fresh. For my experience, I have for the most part. Bottom Line: If you are an American like me mostly making and drinking drip coffee, and maybe not as sophisticated as an Espresso drinker, drinking this Lavazza coffee will make you realize that other brands you have been consuming are acidic and bitter when brewed as drip coffee. You will probably either place this on Autoship if that's your kind of thing, or at the very least you will order it again. But I guess you will have to take the chance on it to find out. I don't think $18 (at most) is that big a risk.
