Gabal Elba
In the higher-elevation mist zone, species of acacia, Moringa and Gabal Elba dragon tree (Dracaena ombet) form the woodland tree canopy, with ferns, mosses and succulents in the understory. The mountain intercepts moisture-bearing winds from the northeast, and the northern and northeastern slopes are more humid than the western and southern slopes. Savannas of acacia and Delonix grow in the foothills and along watercourses. The mountain is home to the largest remaining population of Dracaena ombet in Egypt and Sudan.
