You already know we love interior plants, and we have a feeling you don’t think they’re so bad. We both agree that they brighten up any room, but did you know they actually make the space healthier? That’s right, and it’s scientifically proven, which makes the believing a bit easier.
Take a look at the findings below…

“This study documents some of the benefits of adding plants to a windowless work place - a college computer lab. Participants' blood pressure and emotions were monitored while completing a simple, timed computer task in the presence or absence of plants. When plants were added to this interior space, the participants were more productive (12% quicker reaction time on the computer task) and less stressed (systolic blood pressure readings lowered by one to four units). Immediately after completing the task, participants in the room with plants present reported feeling more attentive (an increase of 0.5 ona self-reported scale from one to five) than people in the room with no plants.”

“In Dr. Lohr's study, common interior plants were used in a computer laboratory with 27 computer workstations. A computer program to test productivity and induce stress was specifically designed for these experiments. Participants working in an environment with plants were 12% more productive and less stressed than those who worked in an environment without plants.” –Tom Walsh, “New England Real Estate Journal”

“The humble houseplant is on the attack. Building on NASA experiments for air purification in space, scientists are pinpointing plant species—from the peace lily to the asparagus fern—that are particularly skillful at cleaning indoor air of pollutants that can cause a range of health problems.” – Gwendolyn Bounds, “The Wall Street Journal”
