"Dragons Blood Tree"
The dragon tree is one of the oldest, most beautiful and mysterious plants/tree. It is also extremely hardy, drought tolerant and can grow fast. This is a magnificent, fascinating plant of ancient beauty with crowns of long, tender, bluish leaves, short, stunt stem and coral roots. It is not a really a tree, rather a giant lily.
Leaf scars resemble the skin of a dinosaur. When wounded, the tree oozes a deep red sap known as dragon blood. In ancient times the sap was used for embalming and alchemy.
As the common name suggests, this tree fits at home with the movie set of Dracula, or possibly Jurassic Park. The very distinctive flat topped and regularly arranged swollen branches of this tree make it a strikingly different specimen.
