Plants-air purifiers from chemical pollution in the apartment

Indoor flowers successfully combine 2 important functions: room decor and air purification from dust and harmful impurities. However, some plant species do this better than others.

Azalea

This tropical beauty perfectly absorbs ammonia and formaldehyde. In addition, it forms very beautiful bright inflorescences. The only drawback of the culture is that it is extremely capricious in its care and only experienced florists can cope with its cultivation.

Ficus

Ficus is popular with indoor flower lovers not only because of its decorative effect. It cleans the air well from dust and toxic compounds, which are contained in wallpaper glue and plastic utensils.

Ficus Benjamin is considered especially valuable. It can be turned into a valuable ornamental crop by twisting its trunks in different directions as it grows.

Philodendron

This plant is a natural air filter. It absorbs formaldehyde, pentachlorophenol and other toxic compounds. This culture will be especially useful for those who have a lot of modern wood products at home. They contain toxic substances that gradually poison the air in the room, and the philodendron eliminates them.

Chlorophytum

This houseplant is absolutely deservedly popular. It is grown not only in apartments, but also in schools, kindergartens and offices.

Chlorophytum more than other representatives of the flora absorbs carbon dioxide, formaldehyde and other toxic compounds, converting them into pure oxygen. Outwardly, this plant looks very simple, but an unusual hanging planter will help make it more original.

Ivy

Flexible shoots and vibrant green ivy foliage will brighten any space. But the value of the plant also lies in the fact that it effectively cleans the air space.

In addition to formaldehyde and carbon dioxide, ivy also absorbs benzene vapors, which are found in various solvents. In addition, it is recommended to grow ivy in rooms where mold is often formed. This plant has the unique ability to eliminate fungal spores.

Chrysanthemum

Usually these flowers are grown in gardens, but there are hybrids that can be cultivated in a city apartment. Growing chrysanthemums is especially important if the house has recently been renovated.

Even if rooms do not smell like paint, the air is guaranteed to contain trichlorethylene, which is part of many paints and solvents. Several pots of colorful chrysanthemums will help saturate the rooms with pure oxygen.
