Who doesn't love a touch of green at home?
Plants make the environment more welcoming, beautiful and even help with
air quality! If you want to fill your home with
good energy and breathe better, invest in these options as part of your decor. But beware:
none of the species below are suitable for pets. The ideal is to place them in a place where animals can't access them.
1. Zamioculca
Zamioculca (Zamioculcas zamiifolia) (Reproduction/CASACOR)
If you're looking for something more modern that requires little attention, zamioculca is a favorite. It goes well in almost any corner of the house, preferring indirect light or low-light environments. Water every 15 days or when the soil is very dry.
2. Espada-de-São-Jorge

The Espada-de-São-Jorge is the partner plant for those who don't have much time or skill to look after it. It is hardy, loves half-shade or indirect light and is a champion at filtering toxins from the air. Water it once a week or when the soil is dry. Place it in your bedroom or living room and see the difference.
3. Jiboia
Jiboia (Epipremnum aureum) (Reproduction/CASACOR)
Want a beautiful plant that's easy to look after? The boa constrictor is perfect! It grows well in areas with little light or indirect light and adapts to a busy routine. Water every 7-10 days, making sure the soil is dry before watering again. Its green and yellow leaves give it a special charm, and it also purifies the environment.
4. Peace lily

If you want a plant that brings lightness and elegance, the peace lily is the right choice. It prefers places with diffused light or half-shade, such as the living room or bathroom, and its white flowers are a showstopper. Water it 1-2 times a week, keeping the soil moist but not soggy. Oh, and it's great for making the air cleaner.
5. Babosa (Aloe vera)

In addition to being a useful plant for skin and hair care, aloe is a great ally for purifying the air. It likes plenty of direct natural light, so the best place for it is near a window. Water it every 2-3 weeks, avoiding overwatering, as it stores moisture in its leaves.
