Air Purifying Plants FAQ

Why Do We Need Air Purifying Plants?

Modern indoor spaces like your home or office often suffer from a lack of airflow, while building materials, synthetic home furnishings, cleaning products and more can all release harmful chemicals into the air. 

This means the air inside can become stagnant and indoor air pollution can build up, potentially worsening symptoms of respiratory conditions such as asthma, exacerbating skin problems or causing Sick Building Syndrome

Plug-in air purifiers might be effective, however, they are unsustainable, ironically creating yet more pollution as they guzzle energy in order to remove pollution! 

Luckily for us, there’s an amazing natural alternative: the humble houseplant. Air purifying plants can help to increase oxygen levels, remove toxins, increase humidity and more, all while transforming your home into a chic urban jungle. 

What Are The Benefits of Air Purifying Plants?

Research suggests that investing in indoor plants to purify air may come with myriad wellness benefits. Your indoor oasis may help to…

  • Boost your immunity.
  • Reduce the occurrence of headaches.
  • Relieve symptoms of respiratory conditions.
  • Relieve allergy symptoms.
  • Reduce fatigue, make you feel more alert and improve focus.
  • Boost your skin health.

How To Care For Air Purifying Plants?

Every air purifying plant is different, meaning each unique plant may require different amounts of water, light and humidity. But don’t worry! All of our individual product pages come with detailed care instructions to help you keep your air purifying indoor plants flourishing. 

Be sure to research the optimum position, watering schedule, compost composition and humidity needs for each plant and your indoor jungle will soon be thriving. 

A tip for all air purifying house plants is to keep them looking their best. This means pruning away any dead leaves and dusting the healthy leaves regularly with a damp cloth. As well as obvious aesthetic benefits, this will help your plants to photosynthesize effectively, increasing their air purifying powers. 

What Are Types Of Air Purifying Plants?

Ferns

With their curling green fronds and trailing tendrils, ferns are some of the most popular indoor plants around. They are also some of the best air purifying plants available. 

From luscious Boston Ferns to wild, spiky Asparagus Emerald Ferns, we’ve got a diverse collection of these humidity-loving natural air filters to enhance your interiors and cleanse your air.

Calatheas 

Calatheas are the queens of the indoor plant world. Voluptuous, bold and striking with beautifully patterned leaves, calatheas will make a stylish statement in any interior. Plus, their abundant foliage and large leaves means that these botanical beauties are super efficient photosynthesizers and cleanse the air of toxins. 

We are proud to offer a uniquely diverse range of calatheas, from stunning, purple-edged Calathea Elgergrass and Calathea Medallion, to vivid and verdant Calathea Bluegrass and Calathea Network

Philodendrons 

One of NASA’s top scorers, philodendrons have large leaves that are bursting with that detoxifying expert - chlorophyll. As tropical plants, philodendrons love moisture and will also increase the humidity levels and improve air quality. Take care of them and they will reward you with a fresh, pure and clean indoor atmosphere that makes you feel clear-headed and calm. 

Choose Philodendron Ruby for a rosy-tinted showstopper or Silver Sword Philodendron for something calmer and cooler.
