The more foliage the better. It should help somewhat in keeping the humidity up, but being that it's summer in la it gets (or at least it's going to) pretty hot. With that being said, you should mist for at least 1 minute at a time. Being that the enclosure is outside it will dry up much faster so I'd set it longer than 1 minute and do it more than 4 times a day. I'd also think about bringing the enclosure in when it starts to get mid to high 90s-100 degrees out since that time will come soon. You want to provide enough shade as well, you don't want him to bake in the sun all day, but you want him to get enough natural uvb exposure. Keep in mind chams are tropical reptiles not desert and it's not as humid around here as it is in places like Florida. As for the live plants, umbrella, pathos, and ficus seem to be the most popular. I use an umbrella that i purchased from lllreptile.com they're a site sponsor and located in San Diego so you should receive it within a couple days. Also I can't tell from the pictures exactly, Is it a male or female?
