How to Grow Fresh Air: 50 Houseplants That Purify Your Home or Office

First to recommend

Description

An excellent resource for identifying which houseplants help purify the air in your home or office. In research designed to create a breathable environment for a NASA lunar habitat, noted scientist Dr. B. C. Wolverton discovered that houseplants are the best filters of common pollutants such as ammonia, formaldehyde, and benzene. Once again, Mother Nature demonstrates her ability to keep everything in harmony.

These houseplants keep things green in more ways than one! In this full-color, easy-to-follow guide, Dr. Wolverton shows you how to grow and nurture 50 plants as accessible and trouble-free as the tulip and the Boston fern. He also rates each plant for its effectiveness in removing various pollutants, and its ease of growth and maintenance.

tend eco orb with air plants - grounded

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

Tend eco orb hanging terrariums are the perfect melding of art and nature. Fascinating, prehistoric-looking tillandsia air plants are transformed into living art in a hanging glass orb. Each orb is unique...no two plants are exactly alike. Britton Neubacher, the artist, will select a variety of unique and healthy specimens for you. Hang one orb in a special spot or group them for the ultimate eco-art installation.

Your Tend eco orb is easy to care for. Simply hang your orb in bright indirect light or filtered sunlight. Every two weeks, take your air plants out of their orb and soak them for 2-3 hours in a bowl of room-temperature water. Let dry and place back in their orb. It's that simple!

Each 5-1/2" hanging orb contains three air plants plus artistic accents. (via shopgrounded.com)

English Keepers - Smith & Hawken

First to recommend

Description

I just purchased one of these (even though I could use more) to store the huge, unwieldy bags of soil for my garden. Makes the soil much easier to access, and there is no way insects are finding their way through that steel.

Still used in England to transport coal ashes to the dustbin, these durable, galvanized steel receptacles also make handy helpers for gardeners.

* Keeps potting soil away from nesting insects
* Protects birdseed from mice
* Keeps fertilizer out of the reach of curious children
* Convenient for toting kitchen scraps to the compost pile
* Extra-long handles make hanging and transporting easy
* Exclusive to Smith & Hawken (via gardeners.com)
