I have had houseplants all my life. While growing up, my mother always kept houseplants in our home. We always had houseplants species such as African violets, Arrowhead vine, Rubber plant, succulents. When I moved to US on my own, I started collecting houseplants so that I could feel close to my home and family. I started out with the same species of plants that I had back home and then slowly kept on adding more varieties of plants.
There are many benefits of keeping houseplants. Houseplants are not only pretty to look at, but there are many health benefits associated with such plants. Houseplants are known to purify the air in the house by removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere during photosynthesis. In addition, it increases the humidity level of the air and suppresses the dust level in the air. Moreover, having the greenery in the house adds calm and peaceful vibe to the space.
