Product Information
Dracaenas, also known as dragon trees, are native to tropical Africa or Asia. Their name is derived from the Greek word drakaina, meaning "female dragon". When the plant is damaged, red resin flows out of the 'wounds'. This resin is also known as dragon's blood and has been used medicinally since ancient times. Nowadays, it is often used in medication for gastrointestinal complaints as well as dietary supplements. It can also be found in anti-ageing creams; the dragon's blood is said to have an antioxidant effect that is up to 5 times stronger than vitamin E. The Dracaena Marginata has a striking look. Its beautiful green leaves with red edges give the plant a unique appearance. The Dracaena is also very easy to care for.
