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.

A much needed quench to the thirst of our societies internal struggles.
Format: Hardcover
The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry: This book is a refreshing surge of truth and wisdom, full of profound teachings from a heart posture of love for those of us suffering from modern day hyper-culture. Thank you for the great read, John Mark Comer. I would highly recommend to others to read this book: To slowly and fully read this book. After the first chapter, I was confronted with so many modern day realities that have become the new daily norms. Those of course brought forth personal conviction and a new hope for the change that would be to come! It was hard to believe that the entire book would be so filling - BUT IT WAS. The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry makes an articulate yet simple stride to sober today’s society to the truth. The truth that the generalized hurried, stressed out, and “got no time” culture we’ve created, is bringing us death. Not life. JMC leads a church that I regularly visit. I do not come because I have an overflowing abundance of time and want to go to church twice on Sundays. No, I go because everytime I attend Bridgetown Church, I am filled with deeper insight into God’s word and such joy and peace! Why joy and peace you may ask? Because our God is a God of JOY and PEACE. When you get to know him and his truths are spoken to us and over our life we begin to know our Father and find joy, rest, and many other fruits in him. JMC and his pastoral team are doing something beautifully radical in today’s society - Choosing Jesus’ rhythm over today’s western hyper obsessed, and greed driven culture. I began reading this book during a month of my life that I felt like I was spiritually under warfare and was having a hard time not just spiritually, but also emotionally and physically. I began reading the Ruthless Elimination of Hurry because I have read all of JMC’s books and I trust that his writings would be only an encouragement for me. This book is full of life giving knowledge that he has collected through his discipline to the way, reading other authors, historical and present, that too were trying to practice the way, and oh yeah - where they got it all - Jesus, the man teaching us all the way! This read was a leveling reminder of my discipleship to Jesus and how to step back into his beautifully easy rhythm that is, no doubt, in opposition to the rhythm of current society, social media, and today’s lure of entertainment. I am twisting and turning my way back into the path God has laid so lovingly before us to stride beside him. & just like that! I am back to the fruit of the spirit spilling joy and love out of me! I cried once in this novel. As I read the last three pages. Please listen why - Because JMC so graciously and intentionally laid in front of us Jesus’ teachings in a language we all follow, a way to heal our souls, bring families back together, unite friendships, & ultimately live life to the fullest. I was filled with a passionate excitement to again believe that WE CAN live in the way of Jesus, walking in his slow and easy footsteps. In my opinion, this is John Mark Comer’s best novel yet. I feel as though we have a modern day apostle helping us to disciple under Jesus. Ready and willing to teach those who choose to listen and leading the masses into the loving way of Jesus. I bought this book for myself. & then I bought a couple for a couple close friends. I imagine I will continue as I see the need in many struggling in a chaotic and over crammed life. This is a refreshing reminder to step back into the path less traveled. I encourage you to read it and see what kind of fruit these practices can bear in your life.

Definitely a really good book to read
Format: Hardcover
So far an amazing book I haven’t finished it, but I’m so into it and I know for a fact it’s gonna be good from the beginning to the end. It does make me reflect on my life, and it has opened my eyes to a lot of things regarding being in a hurry, and how if the enemy can’t get us to sin, he will make us busy. Must read.

Hustle is dumb; slowing down is smart
Format: Kindle
I very much liked the message of this book. I didn’t like the execution of providing the message very much. There were good and bad things about both the message and execution, but good ones carried much more weight. But, I will traditionally start from some… CONS 1. Jokes. That’s the minor CON. Some of them were really lame. Dry like a desert. But some of them cracked me up too. I guess, you cannot win them all, right? But there is an underlying issue here too. Check out CON #3. 2. Overly Spiritual. That’s nitpicking, I know. This is a book written by a pastor for Christians. It should be spiritual and it serves this crowd. However, I hate the fact that people who need this message the most, luke-warmed Christians and secular people, will miss out on this. The ruthless elimination of hurry helps you become a better human being, not just a better Christian. I’m a Christian, and I always try to mix both spiritual and secular tips in my texts, so the majority of the population will not be left out. On the other hand, I guess none of this makes deep sense if there is not a loving God who knows what’s good and bad for us. You can go through the motions, but if you don’t see the meaning, will you even bother to go through the motions? As I said, pure nitpicking. 3. Language, Please! But I fully agree with the current top review of The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry on Amazon: the language is dumbed down and this does the book a great disservice. Seriously, I love self-published books for the personal tone and personal stories. But if the personal tone becomes a colloquial one, especially tackling such a serious subject matter… Ouch. That severely spoiled my reading experience. Still, I highlighted a lot of passages and devoured the book. It taught me something. It reinforced or articulated a lot of what I already knew. But the sour taste remained. Definitely, The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry is not a perfect book. But it is a very good one. Here comes the plenty of… PROS 1. The Origin Story. For me, it set the stage for the whole book. But the advice from Comer’s mentor, repeated word by word, when asked about spiritual progress? Plus, John’s struggles with keeping his sanity in the hurry of the everyday life made the whole book relatable for me. It was a perfect way to start the book. Big kudos for that. 2. Sabbath. I’m a guy who has been practicing Sabbath for 25 years (since I was 17 years old). I never grasped completely where it comes from. I was simply obedient. Not zealous; my line of work (IT support of 24/7 systems) demanded attending some emergencies and scheduled maintenance on Sundays. But I always had the gut feeling it’s extremely important to stick to the Sabbath practice. Even during my university studies, I must have been really pressed (the final attempt to pass an exam) to study on Sunday. When I had the chance to stray away from the projects that needed occasional work on Sundays, I jumped on it. However, only by reading The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry did I realize what Sabbath really provides: the Sabbath — just like an animal or a human being — has the life-giving capacity to procreate.” I knew the Ten Commandments by heart, but the Catholic version of the Sabbath commandment (in teaching, not in the Bible) is severely abbreviated: Remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy. I never paid attention to the whole placement of the commandment. What penetrated my awareness was probably quoting the percentages: If you were to configure Ten Commandments as a pie chart, this one would take up over 30 percent of the pie.” I’m a numbers freak. I know what they mean, like normal people know what words mean. The third commandment is utterly important. The author’s line of reasoning convinced me completely. I was ready to accept that the Sabbath is life-giving. 3. The Message. Like most people nowadays, I stuffed way too many tasks into my days. Almost exactly two years ago, a friend challenged me to dedicate half an hour a day for physical activity. I had to force myself to carve out those 30 minutes a day. It helped me immensely in keeping a sane mind among the multitude of things I do on a daily basis (writing, coaching, a day job, book advertising business, three masterminds, etc.). It saved my mind when I was in the thick of the COVID-induced brain fog for three months. Also, around the same time I started tracking my work time. I had been working 4–6 hours a day (apart from Sundays, of course). And my income didn’t fluctuate much. Creating time for walks and bike rides also created a mind space for me. I think this is a good illustration of what eliminating hurry out of your life does. Comparing to most corporate workers, I work at a leisurely pace. And I’m making more money than my director in PwC who has 60+ people under her chain of command. I’m talking money here because that’s the main illusion in hurry’s favor — that by doing more and faster you can have more. Yes, you can, but it’s not a guarantee. You can have “much” by working 4–6 hours a day. That’s just tackling the carnal part of things. When it comes to the spiritual realm, hurry gives zero return. In fact, it’s a hurdle. I pray, meditate, read and journal for about two hours a day, and I’ve been doing that for years. This is the sole reason I could hustle for years and didn’t ever burn out. There were a few occasions where I was close to a breakdown, but I always had space in my days reserved for God and relationships; that saved me. Oh, and I didn’t just survive. I made a lot of progress. And that’s my point. You don’t need to hurry up to grow. You need to slow down. Comer articulates it aptly in his book. 4. 20 Practices to Slow Down. That was the best part of the book, in my opinion, because it was the most practical. I’m a down-to-earth kind of person. Deep philosophical ruminations are fine and good, but if they don’t translate into concrete daily actions, I just don’t hold them in high esteem. The practices John enumerated are clear, precise and taken from his experience. You can take them and apply immediately. And they are so challenging! Seriously, remember this comes from a guy who spends over 2.5 hours a day on intentional slowing down. I’m on the same page as the author, yet I found most of those disciplines extremely challenging. Also, several of them apply directly to mobile phones. I thought I made a good job of using my smartphone as a tool, but reading through those tips, my complacency evaporated. Anyway, I think this one chapter is worth the book’s price. 5. Deep and Profound. Despite “dumbing down” the language, The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry is still a very deep book. And from time to time, some sentence would hit me like a ton of bricks. A few reflections: It’s wise to regularly deny ourselves from getting what we want, whether through a practice as intense as fasting or as minor as picking the longest checkout line. That way, when somebody else denies us from getting what we want, we don’t respond with anger.” Well, John is more of a saint than me. Too often, I do respond with anger. But he is right that asceticism builds barriers between the impulse and the automatic reactions. I’ve never thought of my ascetic practices that way, but I agree 100% with the above passage. We achieve inner peace when our schedules are aligned with our values.” Well said, indeed! We regret doing things or not doing them exactly because they are out of sync with our values. I like cleaning a kitchen from time to time to express my love for my wife. But I cannot fully replace her in this task because then I would scramble to find time for writing. Putting bread on the table is as important as cleaning, and it is my task in our household. When I regret that I binge-watched a TV series or YT channel, it’s because I didn’t align my actions with my values. Now, I seriously think I should have a closer look at my schedule and determine what’s aligned with my values in it and what is not. Life is right under our noses, waiting to be enjoyed.” Hurry literally robs me of my life. If I don’t take time to enjoy my life, but chase the next shiny object, how would I ever enjoy my life? Pausing the race is a necessary prerequisite for enjoyment. SUMMARY The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry is not perfect. It’s too often snarky and ironic. Yet, it’s profound and mmarydeep at the same time. Writing a book with all of those characteristics is an art I appreciate. The ‘youth’ language and lame jokes spoiled my reading experience a bit, but just a bit. The Bible analysis? Superb. I’ve been studying the Bible for decades, and still I learned something new. The how-to of slowing down the modern life? Superb. Challenging even for a guy like me who uses the technology as a tool, not an entertainment. Overall impression? Superb. Read this book.
