Dracaena cinnabari, commonly known as the Socotra dragon tree, is a species of tree native to the island of Socotra, part of Yemen. This unique tree is renowned for its distinctive appearance, with an umbrella-shaped canopy of stiff, spiky leaves and a thick, dragon’s blood-like red resin that oozes from the tree’s bark when cut. The resin has been historically valued for its medicinal and dyeing properties.
