Flowering Air Purifiers
Nothing is better at beating the winter blues—dirty air, and lackluster décor—than a flowering houseplant.
Boston Fern (Nephrolepis exaltata)
Boston ferns remove more formaldehyde than any other plant. They are also highly efficient at removing other indoor air pollutants, such as benzene and xylene.
Rubber Plant (Ficus elastica)
Rubber plants are evergreen trees from India. Tropical in appearance, they make handsome container specimens.
Chinese evergreen (Aglaonema Crispum ‘Deborah’)
This easy-to-care-for plant can help filter out a variety of air pollutants and begins to remove more toxins as time and exposure continues.
English ivy (Hedera helix)
A study found that this plant reduces airborne fecal-matter particles.
Golden pothos (Scindapsus aures)
Another powerful plant for tackling formaldehyde, this fast-growing vine will create a cascade of green from a hanging basket.
