Dragon's Blood Tree Seeds - Flower Plant

Dragon's Blood Tree Seeds produce a slow-growing perennial tree commonly known in the United States as dragon’s blood tree. Plants develop upright, umbrella-shaped stems with thick, succulent leaves and produce a distinctive red resin known as “dragon’s blood.” This tree thrives in full sun with well-drained rocky or sandy soil and is suitable for home gardens, xeriscaping, or container cultivation in subtropical to arid climates. Moderate watering and well-drained soil support healthy growth over time.
