Dracaena Draco (Dragon Tree)

Dracaena Draco (Dragon Tree) is an iconic, slow-growing tree celebrated for its dramatic appearance. Native to the Canary Islands, Madeira, Cape Verde, and parts of Morocco, it features a thick, branching trunk crowned with long, sword-shaped leaves. The tree exudes a reddish resin known as “dragon’s blood,” which has been prized historically for its medicinal and ritualistic uses, adding to the mystique surrounding this remarkable species.

In modern landscapes, Dracaena Draco (Dragon Tree) is valued not only for its storied past but also for its resilience and unique aesthetic appeal. Adapted to thrive in arid, rocky soils, it is a popular choice for xeriscaping and ornamental gardens, where its umbrella-like silhouette creates a striking focal point. The tree's slow, graceful growth and enduring form make it a living testament to natural beauty and adaptability.
