“4 kinds” of flowers to keep at home will scare away “germs” and keep the air fresh and reduce the risk of getting sick!

Generally, most of the reasons why we get infected with the flu and a cold are because the air quality is too poor. At this time, choosing a few plants with strong absorption and purification abilities and placing them at home can provide some relief. Speaking of purification and absorption, here are 4 kinds of flowers that I can recommend to you. They are the plants that bacteria and viruses fear the most, and they can ensure fresh air and reduce illness!

1. Dianthus

Dianthus is also called Luoyang flower. Its flowers are colorful and abundant in number, making it very ornamental. What’s more important is that carnations have great purification capabilities and can absorb more pollutants in the air, thus ensuring our health.

Dianthus is a light-loving plant. Because it was previously grown outdoors, we can place it directly near the balcony at home to absorb nutrients. Dianthus is not a water-loving plant, and regular watering to keep the soil slightly moist can help it grow.

2. Monstera

Monstera is a popular household plant in the past two years. Its large leaves resemble the back of a turtle. Because of the large size of the leaves, it can help purify the air environment in the home, thereby absorbing germs and ensuring freshness.

Monstera is relatively shade-tolerant and cannot withstand strong light. At home, we only need to place it in a place with scattered light sources to avoid drying out and lack of water. Monstera needs to maintain sufficient moisture during maintenance. Generally, it needs to be watered twice a day in summer, and water needs to be controlled in winter when the temperature is low. It is sufficient to water it about once every 4 days.

3. Aloe Vera

The green and thick leaves of aloe vera are very attractive, and it is relatively drought-resistant, so it does not require much effort to maintain. I believe many flower lovers know that aloe vera can purify the air, so putting a pot of aloe vera at home can reduce a lot of pollution and germs!

Aloe vera likes light, but it cannot be exposed to sunlight for a long time, otherwise its leaves will become soft and turn yellow. Aloe vera is a drought-resistant plant because its leaves have good water storage capacity. It only needs to be watered once a week or so to ensure healthy growth!

4. Pothos

I believe that many flower lovers have green ivy in their homes. It grows fast and has strong purification ability. It is a rare indoor plant.

To care for the green radish, you only need to regularly supplement it with scattered light. Strong light exposure will cause the leaves to turn yellow and dry. Water the green ivy sufficiently. In spring and summer, make sure to water it about once every three days. In autumn and winter, reduce the frequency to once every five days to replenish nutrients.

Keeping these 4 kinds of flowers and plants at home can help drive away germs and ensure a healthy body.
