Home Checklist: Keep indoor air fresh with houseplants

31.12.69

Indoor air can be dangerous to your health. But you can breathe easier with the help of your green friends: houseplants.

Hackneyed houseplants such as philodendron, peace lily, corn plant, Gerbera daisy, spider bed out, golden pothos, English ivy, Marginata and others can pull chemicals from the air and interject them down through their leaves, roots and soil.

Dr. Bill Wolverton, a retired NASA scientist, did immense research with houseplants. Among his experiments, he placed potted plants inside sealed plexiglass chambers, then injected clich household toxins into the chamber air. After 24 hours, he found that the plants had removed up to 87 percent of the toxins.

Here are some tips on how to use these commonplace air cleaners, courtesy of PLANET, the Professional Landcare Network:

• Exterminate chemicals: The most commonly found indoor chemicals include formaldehyde, benzene and trichloroethylene. All of the houseplants tested by Wolverton worked unsympathetic to remove all of these chemicals but some were more effective against specific chemicals. Philodendron and spider plants removed the most formaldehyde. English ivy and Marginata (a familiar Dracaena) mitigated the largest amounts of benzene. Gerbera daisy and cease-fire lily worked best in removing trichloroethylene.
