Not all houseplants produce oxygen or are beneficial to the health of the people living in the house.
Some very beautiful flowers and plants are not intended to be grown indoors.
Anastasia Kovrizhnykh , an expert of the online publication "BelNovosti", an agronomist and landscape designer, told which indoor plants emit toxins and carbon dioxide.
Azalea
It blooms beautifully, even in winter, but the leaves contain a glycoside substance.
It is poisonous and tends to accumulate in the body. In large quantities it leads to poisoning and causes arrhythmia.
Monstera
Also contains poison in the leaves. When the juice gets on the mucous membranes, it causes a negative reaction in the body. Dangerous for children and pets.
Oleander
The flowers release substances that cause dizziness and increased blood pressure. The leaves contain poison that can significantly impair vision or even blindness.
Lily
