National Indoor Plant Week is just around the corner - and New research from the State University of New York at Oswego (SUNY Oswego) gives us more of a reason to celebrate on September 18.
Research shows how effectively houseplants remove multiple toxins, known as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), that contribute to the buildup of indoor air pollution.

Are you joining in the national effort for cleaner, fresher indoor air in our homes, schools and workplaces? National Indoor Plant Week (September 16-22) is in full swing with several companies giving out free plants and retailers showcasing some great displays with houseplants (see images). This grassroots initiative was created to raise awareness of the value and
benefits of live indoor plants. They're more than just a pretty face; they're our "green heroes"!
During National Indoor Plant Week and throughout the month of September, look for indoor
houseplants such as peace lilies, ferns, palms and spider plants with bright ‘O2
for You’ plant tags at local retailers.
So, go out and buy yourself some fresh air for yourself and your family!
