Tolumnias Starting to Bloom

[Optimist]

I am wondering if they can grow in the desert New Mexico. We sometimes get less than 10% humidity in the summer. I think it would be too hard to grow them here, but they are pretty. I will study them further.

I suspect that you can be successful. These little guys like to dry out really fast at the very least by nightfall. I suspect that with humidity that low, you will need to mist them multiple times a day. Another idea would be to place them in a bathroom or above the kitchen sink where the humidity might be a little higher.
