Clean the air in your home with these plants
It’s time to clear the air — and what better way than with these five indoor plants known for naturally purifying the air we breathe. Check out the benefits below 👇
🌿English Ivy — We can all breathe a little easier with an English Ivy in our home, known for naturally purifying benzene, formaldehyde and xylene from the air around you.
🌿Snake Plant — The snake plant stands out with its ability to clear the air of carbon monoxide in excessive amounts.
🌿Bamboo Palm — A bamboo palm can grow to be five to seven feet tall and thrives under a level of humidity, making it the perfect fit for a southern Louisiana climate. It also succeeds in filtering formaldehyde, xylene, and toluene from the air, which are found in lacquers from furniture polish.
🌿Peace Lily — Absorbs pollutants in the air into the leaves and down to the stem where they then break down in the soil.
🌿Dragon Tree — The perfect indoor plant! It tolerates low light and removes toxins like xylene and trichloroethylene from the air, which are commonly found in things like furniture polish and hairspray.
