Plants that can sterilize

The volatile oils produced by fragrant flowers such as rose, osmanthus, violet, jasmine, lemon, rose, Dianthus, lily of the valley, and crape myrtle have a significant sterilizing effect.

The fragrance released by plants such as rose, Dianthus, lily of the valley, violet, rose, and osmanthus has a clear inhibitory effect on the growth and reproduction of tuberculosis bacteria, pneumococcus, and staphylococcus.

Succulent plants native to tropical arid regions, such as cactus, have stomata on their fleshy stems that close during the day and open at night; while absorbing carbon dioxide, they produce oxygen, increasing the concentration of negative ions in indoor air.

Plants such as snake plant, Sansevieria, agave, as well as Opuntia, Kalanchoe, sedum, Bryophyllum, and cultivated pineapple can also purify the air at night.

Plant climbing plants such as Boston ivy, grape, morning glory, wisteria, and rose around the home, letting them climb along walls or trellises to form a green shade canopy; this can effectively reduce sunlight radiation and greatly lower indoor temperature.
