Dracaena draco, commonly called the Dragon Tree, hails from the Canary Islands and is famed for its sculptural form and longevity. Its resin, known as "dragon's blood," has been prized since antiquity. This plant will be sent bare-rooted, without soil, to ensure safe and secure shipping.

Care Tips

Light: Requires full sun to bright light; can tolerate some light shade in hotter climates.
Water: Water sparingly; allow the soil to dry fully between waterings.

Temperature: Prefers 15–30°C; protect from frost.
Fertiliser: Feed monthly during spring and summer with a balanced low-nitrogen fertiliser.
