Obtaining a houseplant is a terrific way to add life to any home. Many can produce colorful flowers or have intricately patterned leaves, and some can have health benefits such as air-purifying properties. While there are numerous reasons to purchase houseplants, finding a safe one can be difficult. Curious pets or children can chew or consume leaves, which can cause many negative effects that range in seriousness. That is exactly why non-toxic houseplants are so popular. To assist our customers in finding the perfect plant, Downtown Walnut Creek Ace Hardware has decided to create a list of our top ten favorite non-toxic houseplants.
*Non-toxic houseplants are unlikely to cause serious harm if ingested, though when consumed in large quantities they can cause digestive upset. It is recommended that children and pets are still monitored around these houseplants.
