The Kiwi Dragon Tree, known as Dracaena marginata ‘Kiwi, is a striking and vibrant cultivar admired for its colorful foliage and easygoing nature, making it a favorite among indoor plant enthusiasts. Its gracefully arching leaves and dynamic color palette set it apart from other houseplants, while its ability to adapt to a range of indoor conditions adds to its widespread appeal.  

This variety offers all the hardiness of the classic Dracaena marginata with an extra splash of color, making it an excellent choice for home and office décor. 

Native to Madagascar, the “Kiwi” name comes from its tri-colored leaves that resemble the vibrant shades of a kiwi fruit—lime green centers, creamy yellow margins, and thin pink to red edging that intensifies with proper lighting.

The Kiwi Dragon Tree is primarily grown for its foliage, which is long, narrow, and sword-shaped, forming elegant tufts at the top of tall, slender stems.

The colorful leaf pattern creates a vivid display year-round, with the variegation appearing more pronounced in bright, indirect light.

New growth emerges from the crown, and older leaves naturally shed from the bottom, giving the plant its distinctive tree-like appearance.

When mature, the Kiwi Dragon Tree can grow up to 8 feet tall indoors, although growth is slow and controlled, especially in containers. It tends to grow upright, with the option to prune or braid stems for visual interest. In its native habitat or in ideal tropical outdoor environments, it may grow even taller, but it remains compact enough for most indoor settings. 

The Kiwi Dragon Tree may produce small, white to pale pink fragrant flowers, typically followed by orange or red berries. These flowers emerge on tall stalks and can be an unexpected bonus for long-time plant owners. However, most growers value the plant for its year-round ornamental foliage rather than its blooms. 

When it comes to Dracaena marginata kiwi care, use a well-draining potting mix, opens in a new tab, such as a blend made for palms or indoor tropical plants. Water deeply but infrequently, allow the top 1–2 inches of soil to dry between waterings, and reduce watering during winter.

Indoors, keep the temperature between 65°F and 80°F with humidity above 40%, and place it in bright, indirect light.

Outdoors, it grows well in USDA Zones 10–12, where temperatures remain above 50°F. Provide dappled sunlight or light shade to prevent leaf scorching.

Prune leggy stems or brown leaves as needed to maintain shape, and fertilize once a year during the growing season in spring with a diluted balanced houseplant fertilizer. 

One of the most unique aspects of the ‘Kiwi’ cultivar is its foliage coloration, which requires just the right balance of light and care to maintain vibrancy. In low light, the variegation can fade, while in too much direct sun, the leaves may burn. Its drought tolerance, ease of pruning, and low pest issues make it a low-maintenance plant despite its colorful appearance. It is also known to filter indoor air pollutants, making it as functional as it is beautiful. 

Final Thoughts

Overall, the Kiwi Dragon Tree (Dracaena marginata ‘Kiwi’) offers a perfect combination of visual appeal, resilience, and versatility. Its vivid foliage makes it a standout among variegated houseplants, while its slow growth and upright form make it suitable for small spaces. Whether placed in a bright corner of a living room or a softly lit office, the Kiwi Dragon Tree adds a tropical touch and a splash of color without demanding much in return.

Great product, great company!
Size: 1 Ounce (Pack of 1), Size: 1 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I found some of this years ago and loved it. Ran out, couldn't figure out where to find more then this last Christmas my mother gives me some of the rose salve and I remembered how much I loved the lotion. So as I was looking for more of the rose salve (also AMAZING) I got some of the lotion. It goes on really light feeling, but has some serious softening abilities. I use the salve on my knuckles first then use like a Chick-pea size amount of the lotion overnight and my hands are great the next day, especially considering how much I've been washing my hands and using hand sanitizer these last few weeks. It smells like lemon meringue pie, and is more lightly perfumed than BBB stuff (which I love since I'm prone to headaches). I love CO Bigelow products, have yet to try one I dislike. I use the overnight lip balm in the winter or during colds when my lips crack and dry the most. I use the rose salve for my regular daytime lip balm (stuff is the duct tape of the salve world, no joke!) and for extra relief on any dry skin. Some might argue it's a little expensive for the size you get, but you don't need much of any of them so they last forever. I still have half a tube of rose salve lip balm from Christmas and I use it every day, several times. They all smell good, they all feel really clean on, they do what they're supposed to without adding products (like glycerin) that will cause further dryness or chapping. Thank you so much, CO Bigelow for making so many quality products and being so consistent with the quality for so long. Fan for life here!

Consistent Quality
Size: 1 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I've used this off and on for years and it's my favorite. I'm extremely picky with things I slather on my skin, and usually make my own from balms, oils, lotions etc. from scratch..with herbs infused for deep healing of skin and muscles. I didn't make enough this year so had to turn to store-bought. I'm not a fan of too many ingredients, and this lotion has more than I prefer, but it works really well if I need it. Winter skin, hands after doing dishes, etc..this lotion fixes it. It goes on, absorbs fast and feels light. The smell is great too. It's not overpowering and doesn't give me a headache like 99% of scented things do. I love this stuff, only wish it was cheaper. It's great, but the ingredient list isn't very good; it doesn't cost a fortune to make this.

Best hand lotion I have ever used
Size: 3 Ounce (Pack of 1)
This lotion is great. Smells lemon fresh. It doesn’t leave your hands greasy or like they have a layer of lotion on them. Goes right into skin no sticky residue.

MAKES HANDS SOFT AND SMELLS GREAT, BUT TOO SMALL!!
Size: 1 Ounce (Pack of 1)
Purchased BIgelow lotions and soaps. Love the lemon scent. I purchased this, thinking I was getting a larger tube. Not happy with the size and price of this. I will shop better next time--and Bigelow loses a star. Nice product!
