SNAKE PLANT
The Snake Plant is a hardy, easy to care-for plant that not only improves indoor air quality but also helps you sleep better at night.
The plant produces oxygen while taking in carbon dioxide and removing formaldehyde from the atmosphere which can cause headaches or respiratory problems; it filters out trichloroethylene (TCE), benzene as well!
ALOE VERA
The Aloe is a beautiful plant that can be used as an air-improving option for your home. It works much like the Snake Plant, emitting oxygen at night and making it easier to sleep well while also being easy on neglect since you don’t have too many maintenance needs with this one!
The Aloe Vera plant is called the “plant of immortality” by Egyptians. It reproduces easily so if you buy one, your soon-to-be house will be full with plants!
The gel from its leaves can also heal minor cuts and burns as well as insect bites to make them feel better faster – do you have one in your home?

Gardenias are a beautiful plant choice for bedrooms, with their glossy evergreen leaves and delicately scented blossoms. Studies show that keeping one in your room can help you achieve better quality sleep- as effective at relieving anxiety or promoting restful slumber as Valium!

SPIDER PLANT
The Spider Plant is not only a champion cleanser of air, but also an excellent odor absorber and purifier. The NASA tests showed it to remove around 90% of the potentially cancer-causing chemical formaldehyde from your home.

ENGLISH IVY
The English Ivy plant is a great choice for those who suffer from asthma and allergies, because it can remove up to 94% of airborne feces in just 12 hours.
