Dragon Tree

Dracaena Draco (Dragon Tree) is an attractive and an interesting succulent tree that is commonly used as a house plant. The terminal ends of the thick branches hold clusters of long wide pliable sword-shaped blue-green leaves. The tree also played a role in the Greek myth: “The Eleventh Labour of Hercules: The Apples of the Hespérides”. After Landon, a hundred-headed dragon, is slain, red blood flowed out upon the land and from it sprung up the trees that we now know as ‘dragon trees’.
