Dragons of the Plant World
Happy Lunar New Year of the Wood Dragon! The Lunar New Year is a major cultural event celebrated in Asia and across the world. The year of the wood dragon begins on February 10th 2024 and concludes on January 29th, 2025. The Asian dragon or “Loong” is a noble, benevolent creature unlike the destructive monsters of Western folklore. Let’s meet some plants named after dragons!
A whole genus of monocot trees is named after dragons, namely the genus Dracaena which includes 120 species of trees and succulent shrubs native to Africa, South Asia, Australia, and Central America. The name Dracaena is derived from a Greek word meaning “female dragon”. It is unclear why these trees are named after dragons, but their spiky foliage and scaly trunks may recall the typical traits of western dragons. Additionally, the Socotra Dragon Tree (Dracaena cinnabari) yields a red resin known as “Dragon’s Blood” which was harvested from these trees since ancient times and used in the Mediterranean and the Middle East for dye and medicines. Several Dracaena species including Dracaena marinata are popular houseplants since they require minimal water and can tolerate low light levels in indoor environments.
Dragonfruit is a tropical treat that comes from a cactus. The Dragonfruit cactus is a general name for one of three species in the Selenicereus genus and is commonly known as the Pitahaya or Moonlight Cactus. These night-blooming lanky cacti are epiphytic and lithophytic, meaning they grow on trees and stones instead of rooting directly into the ground. Their hot pink or yellows fruit have dragon-like fleshy scales and an interior that can be either white or red. Although they were originally cultivated in South America, Vietnam is now the main producer of Dragonfruit. The fruit is rich in dietary fibre, vitamin C, betalains, and carotenoids.
Snapdragons (Anthrrhinum genus) have flowers with cute dragon-like snouts that open and close like a mouth when pressed sideways. These perennial flowers add fiery hues like yellow, orange, red, and pink to cottage gardens of Northern Europe and are a favourite of bees. The Snapdragon (A. majus) is a model organism for plant biology research, especially biochemical studies and developmental biology as well as research on plant-pollinator interactions.
I hope the Year of the Wood Dragon brings new growth to you and your plant collection!Features photos from Wikipedia along with my original AI-generated art made with DALL E.

Dragons Come From Trees
Tumblr media
Once upon a time, in a mystical forest shrouded in ancient magic, there stood an old gnarled tree. Its roots delved deep into the earth, and its branches reached high into the heavens. This was no ordinary tree; it was the first tree, the Mother Tree, planted by the earth itself.
The Mother Tree was the keeper of the forest’s secrets and the guardian of its creatures. But it held one secret closer than any other—the secret of the dragons.
Tumblr media
As the centuries passed, the Mother Tree’s bark grew thick and rough, resembling scales, and its limbs twisted and turned like the bodies of serpents. The magic within it swirled and churned, alive with the whispers of the earth.
Then, on a night when the stars aligned in a pattern not seen since the dawn of time, the Mother Tree began to transform. Its tallest branch twisted and writhed, sprouting wings and a tail. With a mighty roar that shook the forest to its core, the branch broke free from the trunk.
Tumblr media
The creature that emerged was majestic and powerful, with scales that glittered like jewels and eyes that held the wisdom of the ages. It was the first dragon, born from the oldest tree, and as it took flight, the magic of the forest soared with it.
Tumblr media
The dragon flew across the land, its fiery breath bringing life to other old trees, awakening the dragons within them. These dragons were different in shape and size, each reflecting the tree from which they came, but all shared the same spark of magic.
Tumblr media
The people of the land soon learned that dragons were not to be feared, for they were the protectors of nature, the children of the forest. They lived in harmony with the dragons, respecting the ancient magic that gave them life.
Tumblr media
And so, the legend of the dragons’ origin was passed down through generations, a fairy tale that spoke of the deep connection between the earth and the majestic creatures that rose from its oldest trees.
Tumblr media
And they all lived magically ever after. 🌳🐉✨
