About This Plant
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Dracaena Draco (Dragon Tree) is one of the world’s most remarkable ornamental trees — a living sculpture with a distinctive thick trunk that branches into umbrella-like rosettes of blue-grey sword-shaped leaves. Named for the dragon-red resin (Dragon’s Blood) it produces when cut, this slow-growing tree from the Canary Islands is a long-lived architectural statement plant that becomes more magnificent with each passing year. As an outdoor tree or large container specimen, it is drought-tolerant, sun-loving and essentially maintenance-free once established.
