I've heard about these on one of the UK boards I visit. Todd, there's some nice burgundy colored Cordys too.
You did find one of the plain green forms right? I think you posted a pic of it a while back. They're fast growers once they root in.
Cheers, Barrie.

Hey Barrie, Yes I got a very nice green form. The local Lowes & HD both carry the burgundy but very small plants. I found a place here in the US that does have about 1,500 or so of these variegated for $10 a piece. http://plant-warehouse.com/Communities/Common/Themes/Default/Images/RetailPricelist120107.pdf and they also list Indivisa.

Awesome Todd. There's quite a selection on that list. Did you order on line and have it shipped or is there a retail outlet you can visit? Are you considering an indivisa?

Cheers, Barrie.

Barrie I am waiting for them to respond to my email. I want to make sure it's the real deal.

Thin red band in center of variegated leaves versus mine on leaf edges;

Similar, yet so different.

Barb ... yours is Dracaena marginata Tricolor. These get more elegant as they grow. Nice one!

Cheers, Barrie.

Thanks for that. Distinguishing these is difficult...so many.

I've had others that grew quickly.
This one's a slowpoke.
