Live Healthier - Houseplants Promote Healthy Living!

To receive these deals daily, sign up for our **FREE** e-mail newsletter or subscribe via RSS. If you'd like a printable copy of this post, please see the link below. Thanks for visiting!

Houseplants are most commonly used to add color and life to homes and offices, but there’s an even better reason for homeowners to stock up on flowers and ferns – to keep their homes healthy.

Recent NASA findings under the Clean Air Study have discovered that adding houseplants to indoor environments can reduce pollutants in enclosed areas up to 87%in just 24 hours. Pike Nurseries takes the guesswork out of gardening by summarizing the details of the study and offering plant suggestions for homeowners to get started.

According to the Clean Air Study, the three most common toxins are found in homes and offices are benzene, formaldehyde, and trichloroethylene (TCE). These pollutants enter our homes through asbestos, chemical cleaning solutions, synthetic fibers, carpets, and insulation.  Luckily, houseplants offer a simple and beautiful way for homeowners to remove harmful airborne toxins naturally and without much effort.

Everyday houseplants like ferns, peace lilies, and orchids have been found to decrease levels of harmful toxins in the immediate environment through the process of photosynthesis. These plants and other common houseplants are able to absorb high concentrations of pollutants that, once processed, are harmless to the plant itself. In addition to cleaning the air, houseplants can also help raise humidity levels in the home and decrease stress levels.

Pike Nurseries takes the guesswork out of gardening and recommends the following winter and spring houseplants to help keep homes healthy:

• The Ficus: This trendy tree-like houseplant is perfect for year-round greenery, and the braided trunk creates a unique, eye-catching stem. This plant is great for those constantly on-the-go – just place near a sunny window and keep the soil moist.
  
  
  
• Orchid: Countless varieties give gardeners numerous options, and their bright pops of color are sure to complement any room. Orchids prefer to be pot-bound and placed in bright light, but not direct sunlight.
  
  
  
• Peace Lily: The perfect plant for the forgetful gardener, it can tolerate low light and infrequent watering. Foliage color varies from light to dark green, while beautiful white blooms sprout at the top.
  
  
  
• Ferns: The Boston fern is the most common and favorite indoor houseplant because of its long, arching fronds which can grow up to 48 inches wide. They should be kept in bright locations but not in direct sunlight.

How to Protect Your Plants During This Year's Cold Winter Snaps!

To receive these deals daily, sign up for our **FREE** e-mail newsletter or subscribe via RSS. If you'd like a printable copy of this post, please see the link below. Thanks for visiting!

Georgia has enjoyed an unusually mild and warm winter this year, causing plants and flowers to begin blooming unseasonably early. With the predicted cold snap coming in this weekend, homeowners across the state should protect their plants from the frost and colder weather. The experts at Pike Nurseries take the guesswork out of gardening and advise gardeners to adhere to the following guidelines to help keep their plants healthy throughout the weekend’s changing temperatures:

TIPS FROM PIKE NURSERIES:

• Cover plants and flowers with frost cloth or a sheet. (Garden frost cloths can be found at Pike Nurseries locations).
  
  
• Remove the frost cloth first in the morning; otherwise, the sun will trap in heat and cause more damage.
  
  
• Water, water, water!  Water the garden and containers before a hard freeze and again after the freeze. The added moisture will allow the plants to tolerate the cold and bounce back to life.
  
  
• Don’t worry if plants are droopy the day after a deep freeze. Give them time and they’ll usually spring back.
  
  
• Adding a layer of mulch to gardens helps regulate the temperature and keep plants moist. Cover gardens with a 1-2 inch layer of mulch.
  
  
• Plants in containers can be grouped closely together on a porch or patio, or moved to a protected area.
