Dragon Tree Seeds

Dracaena draco

Common Name: Dragon's Blood Tree

Dracaena draco, the Dragon Tree, is from the Canary

Islands. Only a few individuals can be found growing

naturally, and these are mainly on the islands of Tenerife

and La Palma, growing in dry bush at the low elevations of

 the islands' rocky mountain ranges. It's a Palm-like tree

when young, evergreen, slowly growing to 10-30 feet tall.

The plant is related to Agave, and looks like one when

young. At this stage, it's used as a houseplant. It slowly

develops a thick trunk, making it look more like a Palm.

The Dragon trees tend to stay unbranched for many years

 before expanding as a tree. It is the flowering that

causes the stem to branch. Flowering may take 10-15

years to begin, after which the tree begins to branch,

creating the much-divided crown so characteristic of

specimens several decades old. The bark is initially smooth

 and gray, becoming scaly.
