Ideas for breath-friendly presents
How about a plant that provides valuable oxygen to your home? There are 9 indoor plants that contribute oxygen to the atmosphere by releasing oxygen both during the day and during the night, whereas most just release it during the day. Look out especially for aloe vera, Christmas cactus, areca palm, neem tree, gerbera, Rama Tubi, peepal tree, snake plants and orchids.
