House Plant Guide

HOUSE PLANTS add life and beauty to our indoor environment. Caring for indoor plants is a little different than taking care of plants in an outdoor setting. The information in this section will help you keep your indoor plants healthy and good-looking with natural and organic means.

We have learned that indoor plants add healthy, fresh oxygen to the recycled air in our closed building systems.

HOW PLANTS CLEAN THE AIR

Indoor houseplants safely, naturally and effectively clean the air you breathe by naturally recycling the air around the house.
