The tree behind the name
Croton lechleri Müll.Arg. was published in 1866 in de Candolle’s Prodromus. The World Checklist of Vascular Plants, compiled by the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, accepts it in the spurge family, Euphorbiaceae, and lists Oxydectes lechleri (Müll.Arg.) Kuntze and Croton draco var. cordatus Müll.Arg. among its synonyms. The Latin name is the reliable identifier here, since dragon’s blood is a trade name rather than a botanical one.
Native range
According to the checklist, the species is native to Bolivia, Colombia, Ecuador and Peru, the country the supplier gives as the source.
Dragon’s blood as a powder
The same species is also offered as a spray-dried 8:1 sap extract from Peru, in packs of 10 g, 50 g and 250 g.
