Philodendron
Long, hanging fronds, leaves slightly more elongated than those of the pothos, but somewhat more elegant and symmetrical : the philodendron is a classic indoor plant that must be cared for so that it grows in a downward cascade or as a rambling .
But is it true that it is one of the most powerful air purifying plants that exist? Of course. It can, in fact, remove a large amount of formaldehyde in just a few hours, as well as reduce humidity, limiting the growth of mold .
Furthermore, it is a plant that, thanks to its light color and behavior , is capable of giving a certain amount of light to rooms, making it ideal if you want to furnish a space that is not particularly bright .
Fern
A plant that everyone really knows, thanks to the beauty of its thick foliage . Felce is a beautiful plant that must always be kept in a fairly humid environment (an essential requirement for its survival) .
The fern is a little more demanding than the other plants on this list, but it is still a fairly easy plant to grow .
Among the toxic substances that it can absorb, reducing the percentage of its presence in the air, are xylene , toluene , benzene and formaldehyde . In short, this plant is a real wonder and you can use it, often in conjunction with other methods , to reduce stale air.
One piece of advice we would give you is to keep an eye on the health of your fringes , remembering to spray a little water on them if you have placed the plant in a place where the humidity is rather low.
