by: Andrew Hanelly
Household name: English ivy
Scientific name: Hedera helix
Size: A wide range—a common indoor practice is to grow ivy in a hanging basket and let it flow down the sides.
How it makes your home better: The most effective plant in terms of removing formaldehyde—which happens to be the most common and dangerous indoor air pollutant— from your indoor atmosphere.
Watch out for: Out of control growth. Because of it’s ability to grow in a variety of settings—like in the shade and straight up a wall—ivy is known to some as in invasive species. But using English ivy as a potted, indoor plant shouldn’t pose any problems.
