The dragon's blood tree (Dracaena cinnabari) has several unique adaptations that enable it to thrive in its native arid environment of Socotra Island. Its umbrella-shaped canopy minimizes water loss by reducing direct sunlight exposure to its leaves, while its thick, fleshy trunk stores water. Additionally, the tree produces a deep red resin known as "dragon's blood," which serves as a protective barrier against herbivores and pathogens. These adaptations collectively help the tree survive in harsh conditions with limited water availability.
