If you would like to improve your indoor air quality the natural way there are some house plants that will do a much better job than others. Some of these plants do a great better job at converting carbon dioxide to oxygen, while others help to remove harmful elements such as trichloroethylene, benzene, formaldehyde and other volitile organic compounds (VOC’s). Some of the best plants for this are: English Ivy, Spider plant, Devil’s ivy, Peace lily, Chinese evergreen, Bamboo palm or reed palm, Snake plant or mother-in-law’s tongue, Heartleaf philodendron, Selloum philodendron, Elephant ear philodendron, Red-edged dracaena, Cornstalk dracaena, Janet Craig dracaena, Warneck dracaena, Weeping Fig, Gerbera Daisy or Barberton daisy, Pot Mum or Florist’s Chrysanthemum, and Rubber Plant.
