This common houseplant is perfect to eliminate airborne pollutants from your home and acts as a “natural air purifier”.
Many people picture their homes as sanctuaries of tranquillity and wellness, a place to unwind and forget our troubles.
Among the myriad of elements that can create such an atmosphere, houseplants stand out as a contribution that is both aesthetically pleasing and beneficial to our well-being.
The elegant peace lily is a natural air purifier, capable of removing a wide range of airborne pollutants, including benzene and trichloroethylene.
Daniel Ufland, co-founder of interior design platform Flitch, said: “Its stunning white blooms not only add a touch of elegance to any room but also help to improve indoor air quality.”
As well as peace lilies, there are other plants that can help purify your home.
Known for its air purifying properties is the spider plant, which is easy to care for.
Daniel said: “Its cascading leaves effectively remove harmful toxins, such as formaldehyde and carbon monoxide, from the air, ensuring a healthier and more breathable environment.”
Relatively easy to care for, the spider plant can thrive in a variety of lighting conditions, making it an excellent choice for any home, he explained.
