Our area is also so dry, but my Phals do not seem to mind. Maybe because it is not in a south facing window. But it gets to initiate its spike around Fall..sometimes a secondary spike on an old spike.

I do not mist the leaves of my Phals, I just water the root zone. And I always run the ceiling fan for air circulation after watering. And my Phals like that more. When it is summer here, it is really too hot and dry, triple digit outside and indoors can easily rise to 80F and higher. All the more I get those ceiling fans running. Helps cool them down.

But there is nothing like that Fall weather cool down to initiate that flower spike..the plant knows.
