House Plants which can Purify Air

House plants don't just make your place look gorgeous but also they can also improve the air quality. These plants can make the entire home more “breathable” by increasing the amount of oxygen in the air through photosynthesis, but they can also filter and purify the air.

1. Peace Lily (Spathiphyllum)
The peace lily is easy to grow and blooms beautiful white flowers, so it's a great addition to any living room or bedroom.





2. Rubber plant (Ficus elastica)
The rubber plant (or tree) is a beautiful house plant from South Asia with large, dark green and burgundy waxy leaves.




3. English Ivy (Hedera helix)

Aloe is a fast-growing decorative succulent that doubles as a soothing gel if you break the leaf in half. Aloe vera is totally safe for skin and people, but it's toxic for cats and dogs, so keep it out of reach.






7. Dumb Cane (Dieffenbachia)
Dumb canes come in a variety of beautiful multicolored leaf patterns and they're super easy to grow and keep as house plants. But they're actually called dumb canes because of their poisonous effect when eaten, which can slur or stop speech and even close the throat and be fatal in large quantities.

13. Devil's Ivy or Pothos (Epipremnum aureum)

The weeping fig is a wonderful large-leafed tree that's low maintenance and just needs a sunny spot by in the kitchen living room to thrive and purify your air.
