Bring in nature and health...


Three cheers for color! Gorgeous Gerbera daisies not only cheer up your home, but do it some good too. Gerbera daisies are commonly known as the African Daisy. While most plants release oxygen during the day, their respiratory cycle decreases in the evening hours. However, gerbera daisies continue releasing oxygen all through the night to help you breathe and sleep better. Gerbera daisies are especially helpful for those suffering from sleep apnea or breathing disorders. These daisies will have you dozing off in no time! The gerbera daisy was included in the early NASA studies (Biohome feasibility) and is extremely effective in removing chemical vapours such as benzene from the air. Benzene exposure has been linked with leukemia, and the chemical can enter your home from vehicle exhaust and fumes from glues, solvents, paints and art supplies. It requires full-sun to semi-sun. Bright light is essential, but avoid the strong midday sun which may age the blooms prematurely. Susceptible to root rot from over-watering. Keep the soil moist but not soggy, and feed with a complete fertilizer during its growing season.

The golden pothos, commonly known as Devil’s Ivy or the Money Plant is one of the most popular and dependable houseplants available today.Golden pothos is a fast-growing vine that looks great in hanging pots or wherever it has the ability to cascade or climb. Consider placing golden pothos near the garage as it has an acute ability to clean benzene out of the air as well as carbon monoxide. Formaldehyde, trichloroethylene, xylene and toulene are other chemicals the plant targets. Withstands neglect! Arguably the easiest houseplant to grow. fast-growing, safe around children and pets, and almost impossible to kill. They even improve the air quality It likes any growing medium, but growing it in water is easiest for autopilot-maintenance.



Peace lily or Closet Plant, is an easy to care for house plant and is most famous for its ability to reduce harmful chemicals that may cause cancer. Peace Lily wins the “easy” label for four reasons. First, it sags when it needs water and revives quickly after a long drink. Second, it thrives in low light conditions. Offices, bedrooms and hospital rooms need plants, too, and Peace Lilies manage just fine in these darker quarters. Third, the Peace Lilly is very resilient. An insect infestation or a few forgotten waterings may make it wilt and pale, but once tended to, it bounces back quickly. Finally, with sufficient care and occasional wiping of its leaves, the Peace Lily doesn’t seem to be the insect magnet that roses and other house plants are. 


Orchids have a bad reputation as being finicky and difficult to grow, but really, the opposite is true. Orchids actually love to be neglected and most people end up killing their orchids with kindness (too much water and sunlight). Aside from being easy to take care of, orchids rid the air of xylene, a pollutant found in many glues and paints so they make wonderful housewarming gifts for anyone who recently moved into or renovated a new space. Unlike some other plants, orchids also respire and give off oxygen at night - so they're great for the bedroom.
 Chrysanthemums  boasts multiple medicinal and culinary uses. Its yellow and white flowers are enjoyed as a sweet drink in some parts of Asia, while the greens are boiled and served as a delicious meal in China. In addition to being a tasty treat, the NASA study found that chrysanthemums were effective at removing benzene from the air. Benzene is one of the most common odorless pollutants found in inks, paints, plastic, dyes, detergents, gasoline, pharmaceuticals, and pesticides. The flowers last about six weeks and thrive in bright, indirect light.


Anthuriums are exotic-looking blooms, but they ain't just a pretty face! Their large, dark leaves suck up ammonia, formaldehyde, toluene and xylene, Despite sensitivity to temperature, anthuriums are hardy plants that will last indoors for long periods of time. All anthuriums prefer plenty of warmth, regular moisture and ample fertilizer. The easiest to grow are the A. scherzerianum and A. andreanum. These plants have been extensively hybridized and are relatively common in garden centers. Flowering anthuriums will flower any time of the year, providing they are healthy.  Indoors plants thrive at temperatures between 16°C-22°C (60°F-72°F) and at lower light than other house plants. Wiping the leaves off with water will remove any dust and insects.
