Improve your health with foolproof fronds

Plants are a great way to add a health boost to your home, purifying the air and zapping stress. “I suggest a Zamioculcas zamiifolia, the ZZ plant. It’s practically indestructible,” says interior designer Michelle Jett, owner of Decorating Den Interiors of Southern California. “And its sculptural quality adds depth to any space.” One big caveat: ZZ plants can be toxic to pets if ingested. “My second choice is a faux fiddle-leaf fig, which offers the drama so valuable in biophilic design without maintenance concerns.”
