I use a little desk top one for calathea in the winter — gets really dry here, too.

Yes. Got a tiny one and it brings the ambient humidity from 35 to 60+% with normal air circulation in the room. Calatheas enjoy it

It’s the floatie humidifier from kikkerland — it did stop working after three weeks though! There are tons of little humidifiers on amazon too
