Baby Dracaena 'Bicolor'
Dracaena marginata Bicolor, also known as Dragon Tree, is a lovely Dracaena variety popularly grown as a houseplant for its attractive foliage, low maintenance and suitability as a potted plant.
The tropical plant’s strong trunk will grow upright with two or more separating branches, terminating with palm-like structural foliage spreading outwards in clusters. Its colouring is the real star of the show: the blade-like green leaves display cream colouring on the outer borders, then further enveloped by elegantly thin crimson red margins.
Native to the Madagascar and Mauritius islands, the Dracaena is very easy to care for, but has some preferences. It will do well in dappled shade or indirect sun - if the leaves start to develop yellowing tips, the plant might not be getting enough water. If you find that a lot of leaves are turning yellow and falling off, you might be overwatering the plant.
Growing your Dracaena from its baby stage and watching it mature over time, from a tiny leafy stem to a healthy, fully grown plant is a delight to witness.
It’s not unusual to give your plant a name… so don’t hesitate to choose one that you think suits the plant! Try naming your plant with the first name or word that you think of when you look at it - that’s how we ended up with an orchid named Clover and spider plant called Joseph.
