 The dragon tree (Dracaena draco) could have its beginning in Genesis, where it might have been the tree that God told Adam and Eve never to touch. Yet they did, and it brought disaster to the world.

The genus name Dracaena is from the ancient Greek word dracaena or she-dragon. The dragon tree can be a live for hundreds of years.
