Aloe Vera
We’re firm believers that every home needs an aloe vera plant—or two! Not only do they purify the air, but the juices inside the plant can be used to soothe burns. Just snip off one of the leaves and rub the cut portion on a fresh burn to instantly stop the stinging.
English Ivy
You might picture English ivy climbing up the walls of a stately brick home, but this vining plant will grow indoors too. It will happily take over a trellis, or you can simply put it in a hanging planter to let its vines cascade toward the ground. Not only does English ivy help remove typical toxins from the air, it also aids in removing airborne mold.
