Linoblock print of a group of Dracaena draco also called Dragon Trees.
The name of these beautiful succulent trees comes from the Greek Hercules myth. One of Hercules' labours was to bring back three golden apples from the garden of the Hesperides, which was guarded by the hundred headed dragon Landon. When Hercules killed the dragon his blood flowed out all over the land and wherever it went, dragon trees sprouted.
