Stop Killing Houseplants by Harrison James
Your beginner-friendly guide to raising plants for a healthy, stress-free home
Are you passionate about growing plants indoors?
Do you want to fill your home with some stress-relieving and toxin-absorbing greenery?
Are you afraid you’ll end up failing to take care of them all?
From a study published by NASA, the air purification properties of a number of house plant species have been recognized — these plants are excellent in scrubbing the air clean of cancer-causing organic compounds.
And it’s not just physical benefits that these plants bring into your home. Another study found that they also have a soothing, stress-relieving effect on you—whether kept at home or in your office.
It is because of these many therapeutic and productivity benefits that indoor plants have gained popularity.
