Does Periwinkle purify the air?

1. Whether it purifies the air

Catharanthus roseus cannot purify the air, but it can be grown indoors. It is a plant belonging to the Apocynaceae family and is poisonous, but if it is not ingested accidentally or the juice does not come into contact with wounds, it will not have any adverse effects on the human body and will not cause poisoning, so you can rest assured.

Although not touching the juice or accidentally ingesting it will not cause poisoning, it is still not recommended to grow it indoors, because almost all plants need sunlight and good ventilation, and keeping them indoors is not conducive to their growth.

2. Precautions

When growing Catharanthus roseus, be careful not to overwater it. It is afraid of waterlogging, so during the rainy season, attention should be paid to timely drainage to avoid waterlogging that may cause the death of the entire plant.

When placing it, do not place it where children can touch it to avoid accidental ingestion and poisoning. When growing indoors, it is best to place it in a sunny spot on the balcony.
