Dracaena Marginata Bio
The mystical Madagascar Dracaena Marginata, also known as Dragon Tree, got its name from an ancient legend where Hercules conquered the 100-headed dragon at the gates of the Garden of Hesperides. Legend goes that Dragon Trees grew anywhere where the dragon’s blood spilled. As Dragon Tree grows tall, the trunk becomes bare as bottom leaves shed in order to direct energy for new growth on top, giving it its indoor tree-like feel.
Light Instructions

The Dragon Tree 'Bicolor' grows best in a space with bright, direct light where sunlight streams inside directly but can also adapt to spaces with bright, indirect light where the sun’s rays are diffused. Avoid placing it in spaces with low light or areas without natural sunlight.

Dracaena Marginata Care

If you’re looking for an easy plant to care for, you’ve come to the right place. The Dragon Tree 'Bicolor' is drought-tolerant, meaning it can manage with very little water, and it’s nearly indestructible. In its first few days at home, it may lose several leaves, or leaves may turn yellow. This is no cause for concern; simply shake off or trim the damaged leaf and look forward to new, better-adjusted leaves growing. To help it thrive and maintain even growth, occasionally dust the leaves and rotate the pot by a quarter turn once a month. To keep its aesthetic shape and height, you may prune it periodically to your liking.
