•Research indicates that the presence of fresh flowers can enhance a sense of well-being, self-esteem and happiness.  Fresh flowers reduce stress, and have been known to decrease blood pressure and pulse rates.  Use a bouquet of flowers to brighten up the day and provide a lift for a friend or even yourself.

•Plants help reduce noise pollution.  When placed in corners of rooms they help reduce the irritation of sounds like telephones, sirens and high-pitched machinery and voices.  The best noise reducers include Peace Lilies, Scheffleras, Dracaenas, Philodendrons, Dieffenbachia and Ficus trees.

•Plants are known as the “earth’s lungs” because they can remove pollutants from the air, such as those that cause “sick building syndrome” in closed environments.
