Nick was supposedly engaged before coming to New York;
Daisy says, “We heard that you were engaged” (19). Nick’s response is typically elliptical, after which he tells the reader:
Of course I knew what they were referring to, but I wasn’t even vaguely engaged. The fact that gossip had published the banns was one of the reasons I had come East. You can’t stop going with an old friend on account of rumors,and on the other hand I had no intention of being rumored into marriage."(19)

Answer:
Dryads are mythological spirits who make their homes in trees.
Explanation:
1) correct spelling of spirts > spirits
2) Dryads is plural, so you need the pronoun to be 'their' not 'its'
3) I changed home> homes because presumably the dryads live in multiple homes, but it could be argued that 'make their home' is an expression and is acceptable.
4) I would not add a comma before the 'who' because in this sentence it seems that making their homes in trees is an essential part of defining who Dryads are.
