The Legendary Dragon Blood Tree of Socotra
Update: 2025-11-27
Description
Describes the Dragon Blood Tree (Dracaena cinnabari), a rare species found only on the Socotra Archipelago in the Indian Ocean. A member of the asparagus family, it is known for its red sap, long used in traditional medicine and now valued for its antiviral, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties. The tree’s distinctive umbrella-shaped canopy and water-efficient leaves help it survive in arid conditions by capturing moisture from mist. Despite its resilience and longevity, it faces growing threats from climate change, overgrazing, and unsustainable resin collection.
