Description:
Dracaena draco, commonly known as the Dragon Tree, is a striking evergreen tree known for its sculptural form and distinctive architectural presence. This slow-growing plant develops a thick, stout trunk and a broad, umbrella-like canopy of sword-shaped, bluish-green leaves. Native to the Canary Islands, it is well-suited to Mediterranean-style gardens and makes an excellent feature plant in dry, low-maintenance landscapes. Its unique appearance and drought tolerance make it highly valued in both residential and public spaces.

Flowers:
Dracaena draco produces small, fragrant greenish-white flowers during the summer, typically in clusters at the branch tips. These flowers are not its main ornamental feature, but they attract pollinators such as bees. Older trees (10 years or more) are more likely to flower.

Foliage:
The long, stiff, sword-like leaves are bluish-green, radiating from the top of the trunk and forming dense rosettes. These leaves can reach up to 60 cm in length and contribute to the dramatic appearance of the tree. The foliage grows in dense, circular clusters, creating an eye-catching canopy.

Fruit:
After flowering, small, round, orange-red berries appear, adding seasonal interest. These fruits are generally not a major feature of the tree but do offer an additional visual element in late summer to autumn.

Form and Size:
Dracaena draco has a distinctive form, with a single thick trunk that branches as it matures, creating a multi-branched, umbrella-like silhouette. In ideal conditions, this tree can reach heights of 6-10 meters, with a similar spread. Its slow-growing nature makes it ideal for gardens where space is limited, but its eventual size makes it a stunning focal point.

Growing Conditions:
Thrives in full sun and requires well-drained soil. Dracaena draco is highly drought-tolerant once established and can withstand poor, rocky soils, making it perfect for arid or coastal gardens. It is frost-sensitive, so some protection may be needed in colder climates. It is highly tolerant of salt-laden winds, making it a great choice for coastal regions.

Uses:
The Dragon Tree makes a bold architectural statement as a specimen tree in gardens, courtyards, or large containers. It is ideal for xeriscaping and water-wise gardens, blending well with Mediterranean and desert-themed landscapes. Its unique silhouette also makes it a striking choice for modern or minimalist garden designs.

Maintenance:
Low-maintenance and drought-tolerant, this tree requires little care once established. Pruning is not typically needed, but any damaged or dead leaves can be removed to maintain a clean appearance. Water deeply during extended dry periods, especially when young, to encourage root establishment.

Notes:
Dracaena draco is highly valued not only for its ornamental qualities but also for the sap it produces, known as "dragon's blood," historically used for medicinal and dye purposes. Its slow growth and long lifespan make it a durable and reliable feature in any garden.

Companion Plants:
Pairs well with other drought-tolerant plants such as Agave, Aloe, and Echeveria. It also contrasts beautifully with ornamental grasses and succulents like Sedum or Senecio.

Insightful Iteration of the Christmas Story, Minus the European Lens
Format: Hardcover, Format: Hardcover
Premise Birth of the Chosen One is a picture book adaptation of the birth of Jesus, with text taken from the First Nations Version: An Indigenous Translation of the New Testament. This translation was overseen by Terry M. Wildman, in collaboration with an intertribal committee of First Nations Americans. I recommend checking out the website to learn more about this beautiful project, and checking out the clip of the First Nations version of The Lord’s Prayer. A quick disclaimer: Although I am multitribal Indigenous American, I am not well-acquainted with the culture. As I struggled a bit to write this review, I shared the story with my mom, who is much more familiar with our culture. To my observation, my mom found the book to be beautiful and moving. Storytelling The story of Jesus’ birth, attested to in Scripture, is often filtered through a European lens. So often, nativity portrayals depict lightly complected versions of Mary and Joseph– an incongruous incarnation of their middle-Eastern heritage. Renaissance artwork was, I believe, instrumental in forming these pictures within the western imagination. Birth of the Chosen One tells the story of Jesus’ birth through the lens of Indigenous American storytelling. I’m so grateful for this portrayal, which offers representation to young Indigenous readers, while also affording those of other backgrounds insight into a different culture. Translation of Proper Nouns One of the most striking elements that distinguishes this translation of the Christmas story from more common English translations is the translations of the names. While reading the story to myself, I was a bit perplexed by some of the names (Mary, for example, is known as Bitter Tears). In sharing the story with my mom, however, she pointed me to the Hebrew origins of the familiar names we read in the Christmas story. I learned from my mom that one meaning of Mary is, indeed, “bitter,” and we also learned from the story that Bethlehem means “House of Bread.” As my mom pointed out, this is a very powerful truth, since Jesus describes Himself as the “Bread of Life.” Throughout the story, these translated names bring new meaning to the birth of Jesus. It was eye-opening to see how much of the story is missed, with Anglicized names that don’t mean as much to the average reader as they would have meant to the Ancient Hebrew/Jew. Helpfully, the Author’s Note at the end of the story offers a list of corresponding Anglicized / translated names and locations. Narrative Rendering Just as the translated nouns bring fresh meaning to the familiar account of Christmas, the narrative also draws out the truth of Jesus’ coming in a way that is both powerful and meaning-ful. Jesus Himself spoke in stories, and I am personally a huge fan of allegory. For me, the different style presented the sweet simplicity of the truth of the Gospel, with refreshing novelty. The words of Jesus’ birth, so familiar to me, take on new meaning with different stylistic presentation. My favorite passage in the story comes from the mouth of Creator’s Chosen One (the angel Gabriel). He tells Bitter Tears, “He will set people free from their bad hearts and broken ways.” I consider the phrase “bad hearts and broken ways” to be a more meaning-ful iteration of the concept of sin. And, the Gospel itself is referred to as “the good story,” which I considered to be a beautiful (and once again, more powerful) descriptor. Illustrations Hannah and Holly Buchanan render the story of Jesus’ birth in lively colors, with images that bring First Nations culture to life. The twin sisters are completing PhDs in art history, and the Indigenous characters are depicted in traditional attire. While I don’t have the vocabulary to describe all of the details, I do really like seeing the Nativity presented in this way– with characters portrayed in a more relatable way. Readers who are not First Nations have the opportunity to visit Bethlehem, the House of Bread, in a new way, rather than in the style and coloration of European art. The following elements stood out to me: Use of sweet, colorful wildflowers– both in the meadow landscape and as a decorative vine/garland Jesus’ star is portrayed as hugely illuminating and BRILLIANT, with the size and radiance of a sun The characters’ faces are expressive. Bitter Tears often appears solemn or thoughtful. The Seekers of Wisdom blend thoughtfulness and hope. Chief Looks Brave (Herod) appears as a stony-faced background silhouette. (I found this stylistic choice to be especially effective). Content / Discussion Note On the page about the heavenly chorus, the text describes “a great number of spirit warriors.” The illustration includes the single “spirit-warrior,” portrayed as a man with eagle feathers and an eagle headress– alongside other eagles. My hesitation here is that the spirit-warriors / angels are being depicted as eagles. The book of Ezekiel, however, does describe certain supernatural beings with aquiline characteristics. Recommendation Status Birth of the Chosen One is an important Christmas story because it removes the Western lens through which many of us have been taught to read the nativity. The direct translations from the original Hebrew language are eye-opening and offer much-needed context. I would consider myself well-acquainted with the Christmas story, and I learned from this book. I’m also so happy for the representation offered in Birth of the Chosen One. Recommended for readers of all ages, regardless of cultural background. Disclosure: I received a complimentary copy of the book from the publisher. Opinions expressed are my own.

Native retelling of Christmas story
Format: Hardcover
Birth of the Chosen One is a beautiful retelling of the Christmas story. I will say that I struggled with the reading of it from the aspect of years (and years) of hearing and reading the original version. I can see where Birth of the Chosen One could be a good introduction to Christianity for First Nation Peoples or Native Americans. I appreciated that Terry Wildman has both Ojibwe and Yaqui heritage. I also appreciated that the illustrators are members of the Miami tribe. Experience as a tribal member gives these three the authority to present a Native American version of the story. The book closes with a note from Terry Wildman that will help readers keep track of the Native American names in the story. I received a complimentary copy of Birth of the Chosen One. This is my honest review.

Just the most beautiful book
Format: Hardcover
I bought this for me grandchildren to give them a refreshingly different perspective from the traditional Christmas story which most often features white characters which, in all reality, were most definitely brown. It's a treasure, and I'd recommend every family to purchase a copy.

Great information
This book is a good place to start and revisit every few years for newly weds. Even better for premarital counseling couples. The other books in this series are good too!
