It's time to show some love for your houseplants on National Houseplant Appreciation Day on January 10! This day has been celebrated since the early 2000s and aims to recognize the beauty and benefits of both indoor plants and those that grow outdoors. Not only do houseplants add a bit of color, but they can also help purify the air, reduce stress levels, increase humidity levels in dry environments (like your home), as well as lower carbon dioxide levels.
