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 book on dialogue should be experienced first as a book on tape
Format: Audio CD
I think of this more as a great master class lecture. Dialogue should be seemingly simple (we all talk), but McKee defines its essence and differences for prose, stage and cinema. The bulk is narrated by McKee, but the scene examples are read by voice actors and they do quite well. Even the roots of the English language are examined in order to make better decisions on your character's particular use of words. After listening the 10 hours twice while commuting, I finally picked up the book and read it. The book on tape is a better way to initially absorb the material, while the actual book helps to clarify the info. A must for all writers, especially screenwriters.

Helpful, but not as good as "Story" by same author, and it disses certain genres
Format: Hardcover
This book contains a lot of helpful information on how to write dialogue. It's dense with dialogue analysis and insights, tough to take in by just reading it through once. But it is helpful. McKee covers the three dialogue tiers (said, unsaid, unsayable) as well as how dialogue ties into story turning points and scene conflict type. I still have lots of practice ahead of me to figure out how best to do this in my story. I will definitely use his advice as a guide. He understands dialogue at a much deeper level than I do. However, many of McKee's dialogue examples did not speak to me. While I liked reading the dialogue examples for Breaking Bad, 30 Rock, The Sopranos, Frasier, A Raisin in the Sun, and The Great Gatsby, and agreed they were good, I disliked the dialogue from Shakespeare, Elmore Leonard, Sideways, Fraulein Else, and Lost in Translation. McKee says fine dialogue turns the reader/audience into a mind reader; I guess I'm not interested in movies which expect me to be as much of a mind reader as those latter examples did. I totally missed the subtext of the dialogue in those until he explained it to me as an aside. And that's after I already saw most of those movies! If I have to guess what every character means with every line, that's too much work and too little entertainment for me. Maybe mystery lovers liked the dialogue in "Lost in Translation"; I'm not a mystery lover. McKee quoted one novelist as saying that the crux of good writing is to, "Make em laugh, make em cry, make em wait." Lost In Translation and its dialogue did none of that for me. The subtext was so confusing and subtle that I lost interest in the movie. I can't even remember what it was about anymore, only that it won some award and I had no clue why. McKee says that with rare exceptions, a scene should never be outwardly and entirely about what it seems to be about. Dialogue should imply, not explain, its subtext. An ever-present subtext is the guiding principle of realism. Nonrealism, on the other hand, employs on-the-nose dialogue in all its genres and subgenres: myth and fairytale, science fiction and time travel, animation, the musical, the supernatural, Theatre of the Absurd, action/adventure, farce, horror, allegory, magical realism, postmodernism, dieselpunk retrofuturism, and the like. It's a bit unclear how, if at all, anyone writing in any of these "nonreal" genres should take his dialogue advice. It seems to me that even sci fi scenes need some good dialogue with subtext to be engaging. With McKee, all the accolades go to what is implied and unsaid over what is said. I agree that subtext matters, but for me, he's out of proportion with how much it matters to most people and how hard audiences are willing to work to discover the intended subtext. Also, memorable spoken character lines can elevate movie themes and characterization like nothing else. In the end, I think this book is geared more toward writers who want other advanced writers as their audience rather than the average reader or movie watcher. And McKee admits it is definitely not geared toward sci fi, fairytales/myths, action/adventure, horror or allegory. It's almost as if he's saying those genres can't have excellent dialogue. I disagree. But it was still a helpful book to read, and one I will be thinking about and trying to more fully understand for a long time. McKee understands how character's subconscious drives can deepen what they say or avoid saying, and how dialogue interacts with many other aspects of a story to make it all work together.

Amazing.
Format: Kindle
Just like a good movie, the first 10 pages = mind blown. Wow, such really, really good material here. If you're new, this will help you a ton. If you're experienced, this book will help you realize WHY great dialogue is so great, enabling you to create the magic again and again. I love how McKee covers several medias ( screen, theater, novel ) but still stays true and clear on the concept. A virtual masterclass on the subject. One of the best screenwriting books out there, and Yes, it's well worth all the hype.

So to speak
Format: Kindle
Previews did not show the Table of Contents, but it is worth searching the web for. The coverage includes practical techniques as well as case studies. Notes cover titles on topics over several decades. This book has four parts about what dialogue is, how it can mended, and how it can be created and designed. Trialogue, the third thing through which a pair of characters channel conflict in conversation, is an interesting concept because it overlaps social networks or media and comms devices; it is also looked at historically. Dialogue is reportedly the quickest way to fix a narrative text since it appeals to intuition. Those levels of depth are what the book is about. They can be found in first person voice. The approach could easily fill a site on the order of tropes for favorite titles, but for deconstruction and revision, which are also relevant to works in progress. It talks about finding characters in the dark, though not necessarily from the milieu, unless it were compressed and made to transfer meaning like in poetry, but reflexive so that it is symmetrical to the characters or human nature. If there is a boundary to be found, then this method is going to hit the lines to find out what happens then. The impact on the rest of the narrative elements is discussed. This extends back through the early philosophers, through tragedy, the merging of European roots into English, and the study of personalities to contemporary customs. Voice is plot.

ONE OF THE TWO BEST BOOKS ON SCREENWRITING
Format: Hardcover
Probably the best book on screenwriting ever (besides Egri), though there is also much here for the novelist and playwright. I am a professional TV writer, of long-standing (35 years), and I can tell you I used this book to figure out how to fix the problems of a complex pilot I'm writing; the author truly " guided me home." And lest you think I'm a McKee sycophant, I am not. I found little in STORY for me. The only thing I disagree with in DIALOGUE is that the author sells his own work short: it isn't just for those who are "lost" in their writing, like me, and the student, it's for anyone who writes fiction for a living, in any form, no matter how much experience they have. It's that good.
