My houseplants enhanced my indoor air quality
My passion for greenery is on full display in my office, which I adorned with succulents, ferns, and other exotic houseplants.
I appreciated the plant in my home for their aesthetic value, but also for the vital role they played in sustaining a pleasant and healthy atmosphere.
The HVAC company I hired to help me fix my apartment’s air quality also educated me on the value of having some plants around. Because of my severe sensitivity to dust and pollen, the HVAC technician recommended that I bring some plants into the house. I was initially skeptical. The plants seemed to have a very small effect. Despite my initial reluctance, I gave window gardening a shot. The rapid transformation surprised me. I had fewer allergic reactions and less need to use my inhaler for asthma after having them. The air quality in my home has also improved. As my confidence increased as a result of the success, I began expanding my plant collection. Both the living room and the bathroom now feature exotic plants that I purchased. On my windowsill even have a small herb garden. The plants in my home served a dual purpose. They purified the air and lifted my spirits. I enjoyed giving them care and watching them grow. I was so happy about the HVAC technician’s knowledge that I started telling others about plants and if they need an HVAC expert, I knew the guy to get a hold of. Due to my interest now in plants and desire to give back to the community, I started volunteering at the local garden store.
