Lovely, pheli! One of my favorite species. Interesting that yours is only now losing its leaves, mine seems to lose them very quickly in the fall regardless of how much I water.

I grew my plant under low light level last year. The leaves had not turned yellow till this spring.

My plant is just starting to lose its leaves now also. I grow under 50% shade cloth. I'll have to try something different next year to see if it will make them drop sooner. I have a lot of keiki's on one PB also.

I love this plant, have one of my own. Smells like raspberry ice cream.

Did you give it a cool to almost cold dry rest? I gave mine no water from November to March, full afternoon sun and night temps around 50 F (10 C).
This is what I got this spring...

Very nice!
Thanks for posting Pheli & Andrew!
I ended up getting one of these as a TC to the spring project plant this year. Gives me something to look forward too.

Nice blooms, I love these Dens with the fuzzy lips! Den parishii is on my wishlist, but I told myself I'd only get it if I manage to bloom my Den aphyllum...
