Aphyllocladus denticulatus is a daisy-family plant from the dry interior valleys of northern Chile, adapted to extremely low rainfall. Little cultivation information exists, so treat it as a specialist plant needing a hot, very dry, well-drained setup.
Aphyllocladus denticulatus is a plant species in the Asteraceae. The species is native to the interior valleys of Chile. The species lives in dry habitat with extremely limited rainfall.
A chemical study of the species found that it produces the compound 5-Methylcoumarin, which has only been previously discovered in members of the Asteraceae subtribe Mutisiinae.
