The Power Of A Plant

This quick little blurb in Shape magazine really caught our interest.  We've all heard that plants are good for your home because they absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen.  But a new study shows they do even more for your health!  Plants can actually filter out harmful indoor VOC's (volatile organic compounds).  Emitted by paints, cleaners, and air fresheners, these pollutants may cause headaches, respiratory problems, and even cancer.  The best picks they recommend are:  English ivy, purple waffle, wax, and purple heart varieties.  Good little tidbit to know!
