A HOUSEPLANT expert has revealed the three plants you need in your bedroom to purify the air and help you sleep.
Taking to social media, the expert, from Root Growings, said that the first plant they recommend is the Parlour Palm.
The plant whizz explained that this type of palm is low maintenance, and thrives in low light, and humid conditions.
“It purifies the air by removing toxins, and releases oxygen at night, promoting better sleep“, they said.
What’s more, this plant is completely safe for pets, so you don’t have to worry about any harm coming to your furry friends.
Next on the list, is the Spider Plant, which the plant pro said is a “champion air purifier”.
The houseplant eliminates harmful toxins, whilst emitting oxygen, especially at night.
Spider Plants are versatile and can tolerate both light and dark conditions.
This houseplant is also safe for pets, so you won’t have to worry about any unwanted trips to the vets.
Finally, Root Growings recommend getting an Africa Violet for your bedroom.
These plants bloom with stunning purple flowers, even in low light.
They purify the air and release oxygen during the night, so the air is fresh whilst you sleep.
You can pick up these three plants from local garden centres, house plant shops, markets and they are often stocked in supermarkets too.
The TikTok video, posted under the username @rootgrowings, has likely left many people impressed, as it has racked up over 2.9 million views on the video-sharing platform.
TikTok users raced to the video’s comments section to share their thoughts.

The Sun's Gardening Editor, Veronica Lorraine, has shared the tasks you need to crack on with in May.
GARDEN growth can go from nought to ninety in May, depending on the weather. The last UK frosts are generally seen at the beginning of the month, so all of a sudden there’s so much more to do and grow.
Plant out dahlia tubers
It’s a joy to finally plant out your dahlia tubers. Remember how big they can get – and space accordingly – anything up to half a metre apart.
It’s a good idea to put your support stakes in now instead of trying to work around them.
And make sure you include lots of well rotted manure or decent compost to feed it and then mulch to keep it moist and suppress weeds. They generally start blooming in July.
Final feed to Spring flowers
You can give a cheeky feed to all your remaining tulips and daffodils.
Although the majority of bulbs aren’t guaranteed to come back year after year any more, as long as you’ve left them to die back naturally there’s a good chance they’ll have stored enough energy to come back again. Tomato feed is fine.
Tie up climbers
Your clematis, honeysuckle and rambling roses should be well on their way by now – try to use plastic free string to tie them back into their support, or tuck them round each other to make sure they don’t sprout off in crazy directions.
Feed the lawn
It’s not too late to give your lawn a good feed.
Whether you use granular or liquid, it can give it a good boost to see it through the harsher summer months.
While mowing, don’t go too low with your cut length yet and never take more than a third off the grass height.
Get creative
It’s also time to get creative with hanging baskets and pots.
Trailing pelargoniums, which a lot of people call geraniums, and Begonias are a good, low cost way of getting lovely returning blooms throughout the summer in your baskets.
And pots can be planted with spring bulbs.
Don’t forget the greenhouse!
Give your greenhouse a good tidy and clean the glass inside and out.
The improved light will help plants grow quicker inside and tidying is good for the soul.
You can just use a household white wine vinegar and water solution – or even neat if you’re feeling spendy – which gives a really good shine.
