The Stachys lavandulifolia may have to reside on our south-facing, covered porch where there's a ceiling fan that can be used to stir the air. There's going to be a lot of trial and error going on, as I've never tried these types of plants here before.

Re: humidity
Air circulation is indispensable, but a ceiling fan stirring the air does nothing to decrease the relative humidity. Big difference between 20% and 80% no matter how much you move it around.
That being said--why not try it where you want it out in the open rather than a covered porch with a fan? Who knows--it might be just fine. Mine is not tiny, btw--it made a nice mat about 5"x16" as soon as it settled in
