Winters are upon us, which means piles of sweaters to cover every inch of our skin, skipping morning walks to stay indoors under blankets, and missing out on the fresh breeze indoors to trade of warm air from heaters. We tend to inhale the same hot and moist air present in our room without any new air source coming in, so the question that lingers- how to increase the intake of oxygen while staying indoor?
The answer is Plants! Plants are said to be silent workers of our Mother Earth; they keep working to keep living organisms alive. Their contribution to the world is unfathomable and astounding. Mother nature is the most beautiful miracle that happened to humans. Nature gifted plants with a photosynthesis process in which they use sunlight to produce nutrients from carbon dioxide and water.
Here are a few home plants which give out the most oxygen and help purify the air.
If you are a beginner at plant keeping, go for Peace Lily! It is relatively easier to grow, hardly requires any water, and grows incredibly well in the shade or indoors. Another great thing about Peace Lily is its strikingly white flower, which blooms once a year. Its floral scent brings freshness to the home.
