Yeah, I know your humidity. I had to go to Houston a couple of times over the summer a couple of years ago for work. Our summer heat is the exact opposite, dry as can be. I water mine multiple times a week in the summer. And I don't think I would ever call Crypts xeric. Any habitat shots I've seen of them are in spots that get pretty swampy and wet. People who grow them here say to keep them in a tray of water in the summer. I'm just trying my first ones, so we'll see how I do.
