Tips for a Breath of Fresh Air:

  • Go Green: The more plants you have, the cleaner your air. Aim for at least one plant per 100 square feet of living space.
  • Strategic Placement: Place plants in areas where pollutants are common, like the kitchen, bathroom, or near electronics.
  • Happy Plants = Clean Air: Keep your plants healthy with proper light, water, and nutrients. Dust their leaves regularly to help them breathe and function at their best.

By welcoming these air-purifying plants into your home, you're not just adding greenery – you're creating a healthier, more vibrant living space for yourself and your loved ones.
