What flowers to raise at home is good for your health
In the modern home environment, green plants are not only decorations, but also natural air purifiers. Choosing healthy plants suitable for indoor planting can not only beautify the living space, but also improve air quality and improve family health index. This article selects four indoor plants with significant purification effects to create a green and healthy living environment for you. Aloe Vera: Analysis of the dual purification efficacy of natural air purifiers Aloe Vera is known as a "plant purifier." Its thick leaves can efficiently absorb decoration pollutants such as formaldehyde and benzene. NASA clean air research shows that a single pot of aloe vera can purify the air in a 10㎡ space, especially suitable for newly renovated homes. The continuous release of negative oxygen ions at night can improve the air quality of the bedroom. Practical tips for beauty maintenance Fresh aloe vera gel contains 75 active ingredients. Wash and refrigerate the middle leaves to make a moisturizing mask. It is recommended to pick 2-3 mature leaves every month and combine them with scattered light irradiation once a week to maintain plant vitality. Wenzhu: Antibacterial Guard Microbial Protection Mechanism The volatile substances released by Wenzhu can inhibit more than 60% of air bacteria and have a significant effect on preventing respiratory diseases. Research at the University of Cambridge has confirmed that its antibacterial effect is equivalent to 0.5 ventilation per hour, making it especially suitable for children's rooms and elderly rooms. Light management points: Keep the east-facing window sill exposed to morning light for 3-4 hours, and use a humidifier to maintain 50% humidity to prevent leaf tips from becoming yellow. In summer, sunshade nets need to be set up to filter strong light, and in winter, stay more than 1.5 meters away from the radiator. Tiger lily: Analysis of photorespiration by night oxygen concentrator. Tiger lily using CAM photosynthetic pathway absorbs carbon dioxide at night is 6 times that of daytime. Each square meter of leaves releases 0.8L of oxygen per hour, which is especially suitable for placing in a bedroom with a size of 10-15㎡ and can improve sleep quality by 23%. It is recommended to use stepped flower stands for combined planting for space configuration. Combined with ceramsite paving, it can save 40% of watering frequency. Pay attention to keeping the plant spacing more than 20cm to avoid root entanglement and affecting growth. Dripping Guanyin: Dust buster air filtration principle The broad leaf surface captures PM2.5 through electrostatic adsorption, and can process 3m³ of air per hour. When used with a humidifier, the dust removal efficiency is increased by 65%. It is recommended to wipe the leaves with a damp cloth every two weeks to maintain the purification efficiency.
By scientifically combining these four types of healthy plants, a household air purification system can be built. It is recommended to place tigeria in the living room, aloe vera in the bedroom, asparagus in the study, and dripping Guanyin in the porch to form a three-dimensional purification network. Regularly rotate the location of plants and coordinate with appropriate maintenance to make green plants truly the health guardians of your home.
