15 Plants That Naturally Purify Your Home's Air

2. Rubber Plants

Rubber plants hail from India where they’re known as tropical evergreens. These plants love bright settings, moderate watering, and moist soil. Rubber plants aren’t particularly high-maintenance, but they are toxic, so be sure to keep them away from young children and pets. Rubber plants are adept at removing toxins like formaldehyde and carbon monoxide from the air. With their rich “rubbery” foliage, these plants make charming accents to any home or office. If your plant gets dusty, just wipe them clean with a clean sponge.
