While it seems clear from FBAWTFT that the dragon's blood for which DD
found twelve uses was really the blood of a dragon (but shouldn't it
be "dragon blood" to match "unicorn blood"?), there's also a plant
called dragon's blood which has had medical uses since the time of the
ancient Greeks. For anyone who's interested, a site called Magickal
Cat actually sells the resin made from the plant:

or

According to the site, the resin is "is used for power, purification,
protection, consecration and ritual energy," which might provide a
clue to the twelve uses of actual dragon blood (blood of dragons; of
course, I know they don't exist in RL!).

Carol, betting that Snape knows the uses of dragon's blood, the herb,
as well as dragon blood, the, erm, life fluid
