Canvas Print : Dragons blood trees
Canvas Prints from Science Photo Library
Dragons blood trees
Dragons blood trees (Dracaena cinnabari) at sunset. The dragons blood tree is endemic to the Socotran archipelago of islands, meaning that it is found nowhere else. When wounded, the tree produces a deep red resin. Traditionally, this has been harvested by the islanders for use as a medicine, perfume and pigment. Socotra is located in the Indian Ocean at the mouth of the Gulf of Aden, 340 kilometres (km) from mainland Yemen and 250km from the coast of Somalia. Its isolation has led to the evolution of a unique flora and fauna. Photographed in the Haggier Mountains in Socotra, Yemen

This breathtaking print captures the enchanting beauty of Dragons blood trees (Dracaena cinnabari) at sunset. Found exclusively in the Socotran archipelago, these unique trees are truly a sight to behold. The image showcases their distinctive silhouette against the backdrop of a mesmerizing dusk sky. The Dragons blood tree is renowned for its ability to produce a deep red resin when wounded. For generations, the islanders have harvested this precious substance for various purposes such as medicine, perfume, and pigment. This ancient tradition adds an intriguing cultural dimension to the already fascinating botanical significance of these trees. Socotra itself is an isolated paradise located in the Indian Ocean near Yemen and Somalia.
