		<title>How to Grow Your Own Fresh Air</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I saw this TED talk a while back and came across it again today. Researcher Kamal Meattle shows how a selection of three common houseplants can result in measurably cleaner indoor air quality.

The three plants he references in the video are:

Areca Palm (Chrysalidocarpus lutescens)
Mother-in-Law&#8217;s Tongue or Snake Plant (Sansevieria trifasciata)
Money Plant (Epipremnum aureum)

		<title>Himalayan Sarcococca (Sarcococca hookeriana var. &#8216;Humilis&#8217;)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The 3 inch long glossy green leaves are definitely an outstanding feature of this shade tolerant evergreen shrub.
