Originating from environments where water is regularly available, dodartia has adapted to thrive with consistent moisture. It exhibits a preference for steady humidity levels and maintains a balance in its water uptake. This species requires watering every week to sustain its health and vigor. Given its affinity for moisture, dodartia is more commonly grown indoors where environmental conditions can be controlled to mimic its natural habitat. Specifically, as an indoor plant, dodartia's need for higher humidity can often be met through regular misting or the use of a humidifier, ensuring it receives the water vapor it naturally desires.
