Enjoyed the article, Lee Anne. We have almost 200 potted plants in the house during the winter. We've discovered that the sheer number of plants raises humidity levels in most of the rooms. We have pots grouped together in several areas and have discovered that the humidity in the immediate vicinity of these groups is slightly higher than in the rest of the house. We've started placing some humidity-loving plants in these groupings and so far have found that they do quite well in that environment. We do use pebble trays for those plants that need higher humidity levels than the groupings can provide.
