Dracaenaceae family was described by Georges Guerrard Samuel
Perrottet in 1825. It is found in
Northern Yemen and Oman. It grow on rocky slopes in a well drained
soil with little to some water and lots of sun. The stem can grow to
35 centimetres in diameter - or more. In average, the small trees grow
up to three or five meters, but given the right conditions, it should
reach twelve meters.
