Gardenia, a plant with bright green flowers and fragrant flowers, is a popular
choice for decorating environments. It is responsible for alleviating anxiety
and improving sleep quality and is perfect for those who can not fall asleep
fast, as the aroma released by this plant produces a sedative effect. However,
gardenia is a plant that, for being delicate, requires a lot of attention
in order to keep its leaves and flowers. They should remain in a bright room,
but not in direct sunlight, as it can burn the leaves. But if you suffer from
insomnia or anxiety, investing time in these beautiful flowers will be worth
every effort and dedication to a life full of good nights sleep.
For people suffering from respiratory problems or asthma, Ivy may be a great
option. Studies show that this plant behaves as an air purifier by reducing the

This vine looks perfect in a hanging basket, since the leaves should grow down,
just keep in mind that it should keep out of the reach of children and pets
because it is toxic to them.
