No one would every mistake me for Mrs. Green Thumb. In fact, most of the plants I keep inside my house are silk (gasp!). That’s because I can’t keep the growing kind alive – outside or in. But… I just read another reason to keep (live) plants in your house – deodorize!
That’s right. We all know leafy green plants help give your house that fresh air feeling, but NASA has found that certain plants actually filter common air pollutants, giving enclosed spaces healthier air to breathe. The top plants to clean your air:
- Chinese evergreen
- Peace lily (note the pollen may be an allergen for some)
- Arrowhead vine
- English ivy
