These are most unusual trees, they are called Dragon Blood Trees and are native to the Socotra archipelago off the horn of Africa. Look them up on the web to see how they really look, I find them fascinating. I have recently come back from a holiday in Madeira and the posts you have been seeing were prepared and put in draft before I went away including this one. While I was in Madeira I saw lots of nice trees including another variety of Dragon tree [Dracaena draco/ Dragoeiro], so I thought I would hang into this post until I got home so that I could include some photos of the real trees.
These are amazing trees, and I like the painting!
