Hi guys I was just wondering if any has grown any of these by a window inside. Was really interested in buying a Drosera Andromeda, a cross between Prolifera and Schizandra. I heard Andromeda needed high humidity like the two it is propogated from. Has anyone grown any of these or have any input if it can grow in a lower humidity area. I would be talking 50-70% thank you!

Never grown andromeda but prolifera and schizandra are great plants. You could maybe get them to grow at the humidity levels mentioned but they would do much better at the 70% level rather then the 50% level. The biggest problem I had growing mine on a windowsill was hitting their preferred temps in the summer, that was the deal breaker for me.
