What potted plants can be kept in the kitchen to improve feng shui and boost fortune?

  The kitchen is where we cook, and it easily produces cooking fumes or gas. If we can keep some plants in the kitchen, they can not only purify the kitchen air but also improve the kitchen's feng shui.

  So, which plants are better to keep in the kitchen? Let's take a look together with the editor!

  Homemakers certainly cannot live in a place as lush with greenery as a tropical rainforest, but they can cleverly place some plants so that they function to the greatest extent and make their home environment more comfortable and healthier. Now let's show you a few tips on green plant arrangements for the kitchen.

  In the cooking fumes produced during cooking, besides carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and particulate matter, organic substances such as acrolein and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are also released. Among them, acrolein can cause symptoms such as sore throat, dry eyes and fatigue. Excessive polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons can cause cell mutation and induce cancer. To make the cook's body and mind healthier, greening the kitchen is urgent.

  In the artistic arrangement of greenery, you can choose plants that can purify the air, especially those resistant to cooking fumes and gas, such as Pilea cadierei (aluminum plant), spider plant (Chlorophytum comosum), red ruby, and Commelina communis (Asiatic dayflower), placing them away from the gas stove, or hanging them from a flat ceiling not directly exposed to cooking fumes.

  Spider plant and golden pothos (Epipremnum aureum) have a strong air-purifying effect and also have the effect of driving away mosquitoes and insects, making them ideal choices for kitchen plants. They can also be placed on the refrigerator.

  The hyacinth, hailed as the "Western narcissus," gets its name from the transliteration of the Greek name Hyacinthus, originally the name of a handsome young man loved by the god Apollo in Greek mythology. The flower language of the hyacinth is: joy, love, happiness, and deep affection.

  In foreign countries, the flower language of the hyacinth is "as long as you light the fire of life, you can enjoy an abundant life together." This saying precisely expresses the hyacinth's beautiful appearance and inner meaning. Such a playful little bouquet is suitable for placing on kitchen cabinets or the dining table, adding a special touch of domestic delight, and it can also play a certain role in freshening the air.
