The best plants for an eco-friendly office
Having plants around not only helps the average office environment feel more natural and "homey," but of course we've all heard about how they help us breath cleaner air. And although generally speaking 1 plant per 100 square feet is good for cleaning out common toxins like ammonia, formaldehyde, and acetone, not all plants are created equal when it comes to how hard they work. Different plants are good at clearing different things from the environment, but the 3 biggest hitters are #1 the Areca Palm, #2 the Peace Lily, and #3 the Rubber Plant. Other common office plants that also finished high in the rankings were the ficus (it has to be a real one though!), the dracena, and english ivy.
How many plants do you have in your office? Knowing how much good they're doing may make the chore of watering them all every week a little less frustrating!
