These have been flowering for months. The flowers are firm. I read somewhere that these were fragrant. Mine is not.

beautiful tiny flowers...try midnight or early morning...the fragrance might just be very light that you need to really put it near your nose.

Thats obscenely tiny!! Nice work!
Maybe to smell it you need to stuff a few of those blooms into just one of your nostrils and cover the other one.

What temperature range do you grow this one in? I might need to find one. It's really awesome!

That's a bangin' plant, Fishballs (pun intended). Great photos, too. This one must have a really small pollinator.

So so cute!! And it looks so well grown, nice job! If you hadn't added that last pic with your fingers, I was imagining this plant to be much much larger. Love the live moss it's growing with.

Thank you all for your comments and suggestions. I still detect no fragrance. Has anyone smelled otherwise?

I grow this in my basement. The temp ranges seasonally from about 66F to 76F. Its been flowering off and on since I got it in march last year. But now that its a bit cooler I'm getting more flowers.

The new name for this is Triotosiphon bangii,
