There are several types of Dragons blood trees.
A great degree of confusion exists till today in regards to the source and identity of dragon’s blood and its uses.
Both Croton lechieri and Dracaena cinnabari are still often marketed today as “Dragon’s Blood”, with little or no distinction being made between the two tree sources.
The most commonly used Dragons blood are: Dracaena Cinnabari and Croton Lechieri. (Socotra tree) or Dragon Tree, is native to the Socotra archipelago in the Indian Ocean. The Dragons Blood tree trunk or branch is cut or scarred which produces red sap that resembles blood.
In ancient texts, Dragon’s Blood (Dracaena cinnabari) was used as ink as well as a variety of other uses as pigment for dye, jewelry, pottery, varnish, incense and spiritual practices. Voyagers to the Canary Islands in the 15th century obtained dragon’s blood as dried garnet-red drops (resin) from Dracaena Cinnabari (aka Dracaena draco), this tree is native to the Canary Islands, Morocco and the Mediterranean Basin.
The sap is then processed into a resin that was believed to harness high frequencies and mystical powers. This resin was traded to ancient Europe via the incense road.
According to legend, the Dragon Blood trees from the island of Socotra have grown out from the blood of a dragon which was injured in a fight. As the dragon took to the skies tempting to fly to safety, his blood spread all over the island. Dragons have been a part of mythology and legend for thousands of years.
