Improve indoor air quality with houseplants

Thirty years ago, a NASA study found that certain houseplants can help clean the air inside space stations, and since that time, studies have confirmed that the same houseplants may be able to do that for a home or office too.

Beyond air quality, other studies have linked certain houseplants to an increase in productivity, calmness, creativity and even a better night’s sleep.

NASA recommends placing up to 18 plants in an 1,800-square-foot house to help purify the air. The best plants to use? Studies highlight these:

Philodendron
Aloe
Snake plant
Peace lily
English Ivy
Spider plant
Gerbera Daisy
Dragon tree
Bamboo
