The Socotra Dragon Tree, also known as a Dragon Blood Tree, can only be
found on the island of Socotra, Yemen. Visually the tree is very unique
with its umbrella shape and exposed branches that reach for the sky. Its
shape allows for the tree to collect and absorb mist that passes over the
island. What makes this tree even more interesting is the red resin inside
of the tree’s trunk, which is the reason it is called the Dragon Blood
Tree. Local legend says that the first Dragon Blood Tree was created from
the blood of an injured dragon that had been fighting with an elephant.
When the tree is sliced open, it will actually bleed a deep crimson color.
