PLANTS ARE THE LUNGS OF THE EARTH

Siam Tulip/Ginger
   PLANTS PRODUCE THE OXYGEN THAT MAKES LIFE POSSIBLE, ADD PRECIOUS MOISTURE, AND FILTER TOXINS.
   PLANTS can help remove indoor pollutants and have other health benefits:

   1- Plants can help fight colds by increasing humidity levels & decreasing dust.
   2- Plants can remove airborne contaminants that cause headaches, nausea, runny noses & sneezing.
   3- Plants can make you Happy :)  Studies show that patients who face a garden view in their     hospital rooms often recover more qucikly than those facing a wall.
   4- Plants can decrease your blood pressure - people with plants in their homes have less stress.
   5- Plants can reduce carbon dioxide by drawing carbon dioxide from the air thru photosynthesis; removing this substance can help prevent drowsiness and increase concentration levels.
   6- Plants can remove airborne chemicals from cigarettes.  PEACE LILY is a good choice.

Plants that do well in low-lighting indoor environments:
   Peace Lily, Spider Plant, Rubber Plant, Dracena Janet Craig, Bamboo Palm and Corn Plant.
