Are you a plant lover? Maybe even so far as to call yourself plant parent? Then you will love this plant lover’s bedroom I saw at the Ideal Home Show in London.

Here are 10 of the best plants for a better sleep for your bedroom:

- I like the look of Boston Fern which is a good air purifier but also a bit on the high maintenance side in terms of care.
- All three of the Goldon Pothos, the Snake Plant and the Peace Lily take out harmful household toxins that may be in your room such as formaldehyde.
- If you have trouble getting to sleep, Lavender is a known calming scent and the scent of Jasmine may help reduce anxiety.
