Plants in the bedroom are not a simple topic at all. How do you choose them to sleep peacefully? 🙂 A bedroom is a place where we spend a third of our life, which is why we should be very careful when it comes to decorating – especially while choosing plants. We often focus only on their aesthetic values, forgetting about their functions. Unfortunately, it can have negative consequences. Therefore, before you decide on a specific ones, be sure to learn more about each of them.
When deciding on plants, we must be aware of their influence. Remember that they are living organisms and not all of them can be easily cared.
Are potted plants in the bedroom is a really good idea?
We can hear some opinions, that if we want to get up refreshed, we should definitely resign from the flower’s presence in the bedroom. More specifically, it is all about the photosynthesis process – at night, plants compete with people for oxygen. In a room full of plants, we feel weak, we may also suffer headache. However, there are plants that work the opposite way- they accumulate oxygen during the day, and then give it to us at night. These ones should be in our bedroom.
Perfect plants for our bedroom:
– oxygenate the air
– don’t have intensive scent
– they filter out poisons and other pollutants from the air
– moisturize the air
Plants we should definitely look for:
1. Orchid Dendrobium)
Delightful and effective flowers are not only the biggest advantages. An additional argument for “YES” is the lack of scent, and the air moisturizing properties.
2. Aloe
You can write a book about its properties 🙂 Aloe grows best in sunny places. Remember – never put water directly on it.
3. Sansevieria
A plant, that will forgive us a lot. It is not very addictive, it grows even in very shaded bedrooms. Thanks to its simplicity, it fits well for the Scandinavian style interiors.
Plants that clean and moisturize the air:
