Indigenous to the Namib Desert, this plant is considered a "living fossil" and reaches ages between 500-2000 years old. It has a short trunk and only produces two leaves.

Unique to the islands of Socotra in Yemen, this tree got its name from its sap, which is said to resemble Dragon's blood. The sap is used to make stimulants and toothpaste. The trees tend to huddle together to give their roots shade.
