Dragon blood tree (Dracaena cinnabari)

The unmistakable silhouette of the most famous of all plant species on Socotra, the Dragon blood tree (Dracaena cinnabari). I stayed here for two nights, and what an amazing place – a forest of dragon blood trees!

It’s like being in Jurassic park without the dinosaurs!

It is endemic to Socotra.
