Do all house plants need a humidifier?

The short answer is no. Tropical plants may prefer it whereas desert plants don’t love humidity

I mostly have tropical plants, but I’ve found that as long as they get lots of sunlight and are watered according to their needs, they’ll thrive. Of course, there are a few exceptions, but most of the plants you’ll find don’t need a humidifier.

Thank you.. I was really confused to what to do. Being that the weather has been so dry
