How much humidity does seabeach sandwort need?
What actually works
If tips do start browning, group seabeach sandwort with other plants or move it away from radiators and draughts. A pebble tray helps a little; a small humidifier helps a lot. Neither is needed unless the plant is telling you it is dry.
