Now that another winter is upon us and we re all closing up our homes, offices and schools, lets do something to insure we not only reduce some of the indoor pollutants, but in the process add beauty and oxygen to our closed environments.

They produce the oxygen that makes life possible, add precious moisture and filter toxins. Indoor plants can perform these essential functions in your home or office with the same efficiency as a rainforest in our biosphere.
