1. Areca Palm (Chrysalidocarpus lutescens)

Works well in the day time
Great for living areas
One needs about 4 shoulder high plants/person
Needs to be put outdoors once every 3-4 months
The leaves of the plant need to be wiped everyday in Delhi and perhaps once a month in a cleaner city
The soil used should be of vermi manure or use hydroponics

2. Mother-in-law’s Tongue (Sansevieria trifasciata)

Converts CO2 into O2 at night
One requires about 6-8 such waist high plants per person in the bedroom
Leaves need to be wiped in the same way as the Areca Palm
The soil used should be of vermi manure or use hydroponics

3. Money Plant (Epipremnum aureum)

Excellent for removing Formaldehyde and other VOC’s
Best grown using hydroponics
