OK! I did a lot of research for you and I found out that it can live in moist or dry soil. Since it can live in the desert, it can survive in dry soil. It does not have strong roots but can absorb a lot. Just remember not to drown your plant if you have one, because it would most likely die. Hope I helped you! =)
