We are all accustomed to subjecting the water that comes into our homes through pipes to additional purification. We install main water filters in the apartment, and then purify the water using filter jugs.

But we rarely care about the cleanliness of the air in our homes. Just moisturize it. And this is not always the case.

And this despite what has been established: the air inside an apartment is often much dirtier than outside.

Fortunately, you can improve its quality using the most common indoor plants.

Below are 15 flowers that grow well in any home and that NASA, which is actively studying the ability of plants to purify the air, considers the most effective.

Sansevieria

People don't like this plant too much. They call it "mother-in-law's tongue." And they even associate various troubles with him.

It is worth choosing home flowers not only for their beauty, but also for their usefulness. City apartments need plants that clean the air of dust, microbes and toxic substances, enrich it with oxygen, and saturate it with beneficial aromas and phytoncides. And you should know that there are plants that will be more useful in the kitchen, where, as a rule, high humidity, stuffiness and smoke.

There are those that help improve the atmosphere in the office - they remove the negative influence of electromagnetic radiation from a computer, scanner, TV. And there are indoor flowers that are very useful to grow in the bedroom.

1. Chlorophytum
Chlorophytum is a plant with drooping stems. Its long linear leaves are collected in basal bunches. Chlorophytum flowers are small, collected in a loose panicle. After flowering, the arcuate stems form bunches of leaves with aerial roots. Strong specimens have numerous hanging stems with rosettes of leaves.

Chlorophytum is a champion among flowers for improving the health of rooms and is one of the most effective air purifiers in the room. It absorbs formaldehyde and carbon monoxide and releases oxygen. And if in flower pots put Activated carbon, the cleansing properties of chlorophytum increase several times.

This "sanitary" also kills harmful bacteria. By the way, it is no coincidence that chlorophytums are never affected by pests.

If you place chlorophytum in the kitchen, it will act more efficiently than expensive air purifiers - it will clean the room from harmful gas oxides and odors in a few hours.

Chlorophytum is one of the most common unpretentious indoor plants. It grows quickly, and in spring and summer, first small white flowers and then tiny rosettes of leaves appear on thin stems. They can be separated from the plant and rooted.

Temperature: moderate. In winter, not lower than 18 °C. Chlorophytum will not die at unfavorable temperatures, but this will certainly affect its appearance. Cold drafts or keeping them near an uninsulated window harm the plant.

Lighting: chlorophytum is a light-loving plant. Prefers bright, diffused light. Grows well near an east or west window. It can also grow on a north window, but in too dark a place the plant loses its decorative appeal. The south window needs shading.

Watering: requires abundant watering from spring to autumn and moderate in winter. The soil should be kept moist all the time.

Fertilizer: fertilizing watering is carried out once every 2 weeks from March to August complex fertilizer for decorative foliage plants.

Air humidity: in summer, it is useful to spray the leaves from time to time and give them a warm shower. Spraying is necessary if the plant is kept next to heating system.

Transplantation: annually in February - March. Large plants or old ones are replanted after two years, but fed annually. Soil - 2 parts turf, 1 part humus, 1 part leaf soil and 1 part sand. Chlorophytum has large, thick roots; if they grow, the pots crack near the bottom. Therefore, chlorophytum is given spacious dishes.

Reproduction: rooting of daughter rosettes, as well as division during transplantation.

2. Ficus
It has phytoncidal properties and cleanses the air of toxins, so the best place for it is the kitchen or rooms whose windows overlook, for example, a busy highway or industrial area. Glossy ficus leaves are ideal for the kitchen: they retain a large number of dust, but they are convenient to wash and wipe. Ficus will also help to humidify the air and saturate it with oxygen. It’s just important to know that ficus plants produce oxygen during the day in sunlight, but absorb it at night. Therefore, they should not be placed in the bedroom, much less in the nursery.

The plant prefers bright places, but not direct sunlight. Watering is moderate. In autumn and winter, it often drops healthy leaves due to excessive waterlogging. That's why experienced flower growers It is advised not to water the plant in winter, but only spray the leaves.

Temperature: in spring and summer 23-25°C, in winter most species need a temperature of 12-15°C, but they tolerate wintering well in the warmth of a living room. All ficus trees tolerate cold drafts very poorly.

Watering: Ficus plants are watered evenly throughout the year, increasing watering only in summer. In tree-like species, the soil should be allowed to dry between waterings; ampelous forms require more frequent watering. Lack of moisture leads to yellowing and falling of leaves, which threatens the complete death of small-leaved species. Excessive watering also causes leaves to fall and root collars to rot. Use soft, standing (at least 12 hours) water.

Air humidity: in winter and summer, ficus leaves should be regularly washed and sprayed with water. Use water room temperature.

Feeding: half dose of liquid fertilizer for indoor plants in spring summer time every 15 days. For large ficus plants, granular fertilizers are suitable.

Transfer: young plant replanted annually, better in early spring, quite dense earth mixture, consisting of two parts of deciduous land and one part each of turf and greenhouse soils with the addition of sand and rotted manure. When the pot becomes heavy or bulky, change only the substrate to a depth of 4 cm, being careful not to damage the roots. When planting ficuses in a container, good drainage should be provided to avoid stagnation of water, leading to rotting of the roots.

Propagation: There are several ways to propagate ficus plants. Propagated by seeds, cuttings and layering.

Seeds are sown in spring in bowls and covered with soil to their thickness. The soil mixture is made up of deciduous soil and a little river sand. The bowls are covered with glass on top, and the crops are kept in a humid environment. The glass is removed for 30 minutes twice a day to ventilate the crops. Seedlings with the first leaf dive into the ground of the same composition. Grown plants are planted in pots
diameter 7 cm.

Reproduction apical cuttings occurs in spring and summer in a mini-greenhouse with bottom heating, using phytohormones.

Air layering Ficuses propagate from May to September. Below the leaf, a 5 mm cut is made on the trunk from bottom to top. Dip a wet match into dry hormonal powder for cuttings and stick it into the cut so that it does not close. They wrap this place with damp moss and tie it with raffia, covering it with film on top. After a few months, roots emerge through the moss. Then they cut off the petiole below the roots and plant a new plant in a 10-12 cm pot.

Pests: affected by thrips, scale insects.

3. Geranium
It is recommended to keep geranium in the bedroom. Produced by pelargonium (geranium) useful compounds have a calming effect, which is very important for stress and insomnia.

The plant is unpretentious and easily propagated. Light-loving - best kept on a windowsill, on the sunny side. In the warm season, it requires abundant watering. To form a bush, pruning or pinching should be done, although geranium does not like frequent and strong pruning.

Reproduction: all geraniums are easily propagated by cuttings throughout the year, most favorable time for cuttings - February-March and July-August. It is better to renew geraniums by cutting off the apical shoot for rooting. When cutting, the cut cutting is first slightly withered and planted in a substrate, kept dry (watered rarely and not sprayed).

Transplantation: Young geraniums must be replanted annually. This is done in the spring before growth begins. The container for the roots should be small, otherwise leafy shoots will develop strongly, but the plant will not bloom. A mixture of turf, leaf, humus soil and sand (2:2:2:1) is suitable for cultivating geraniums.

4. Laurel.
The aroma of laurel will not only purify the air, but also help get rid of moths, cockroaches and flies.

In summer, plants are watered abundantly with soft, settled water as the top layer of the substrate dries. In hot weather, you can water twice a day. By autumn, the amount of watering is reduced. In winter, watering is limited, not allowing the earthen clod to dry out completely. Watering is carried out two to three days after the top layer of the substrate has dried.

Laurel prefers high air humidity. The plant should be regularly sprayed with soft, settled water. You can place the container with the laurel on a tray with damp expanded clay, pebbles or moss. In this case, the bottom of the pot should not touch the water.

Feed the laurel once a month during the growing season. mineral fertilizer.

Laurels tolerate shearing and pruning well; they can be given any decorative form(round, pyramidal, etc.). Pruning is done around mid-August, when growth ends. The remaining eyes on the plants will develop well before winter, ripen, and in the spring, with the beginning of growth, they will produce strong shoots. At spring pruning the strongest apical ocelli are removed, the increase from the remaining insufficiently developed ocelli is small.

Laurel grows slowly. Young plants are replanted as needed (when the roots fill the pot), about once every 2 years, adults - after about three to four years. The substrate for planting can consist of leaf (2 parts), turf (1 part), humus soil (2 parts), peat and sand (1 part each). The plant prefers a slightly alkaline or neutral soil mixture. Laurel grows better in small containers, so when replanting, the containers are taken according to the amount of soil and the development of the root system (it is advisable to increase the size of the pot by 2 cm, no more). This is also taken into account when replanting plants in tubs (increase the size of the tub by 5 cm). The bottom of the pot or tub provides good drainage.

Plants are propagated by seeds, cuttings and division.

Many plants are capable of absorbing substances harmful to humans, and many types of indoor plants release phytoncides into the air - substances that kill microbes.
3. Modern apartments are full of devices that emit electromagnetic radiation - computers, refrigerators, microwaves, TVs, hair dryers. Its long-term exposure affects well-being causing headaches, insomnia and fatigue. Some electromagnetic radiation is also absorbed by our green pets.
