Dracaena draco, the dragon tree, is found in the Canary Islands & it’s another pretty famous dracaena. You can even see it growing as a street tree in La Laguna, Tenerife. Spectacular! #Dracaena #Asparagaceae #Botany 🌾🧪🌱

There is an amazing collection of large dragon trees in the Gibraltar Botanical Garden, just in case someone come to visit The Rock

A drago (the name in Spanish) was even on the old 1000 pesetas note, before the euro.
