Devil’s ivy is a good choice if you want a more dramatic effect. Long tendrils (up to 2.4 metres) of green heart-shaped leaves grow quickly and can easily be trained to grow over structures to present as a green wall, as in this light-filled study. All devil’s ivy requires to look its best is moderate to bright light (it tolerates low light but you don’t get the variegated yellow and white on the leaves seen here).
And, wait for it, NASA’s Clean Air Study rated it as one of the world’s best air-cleaning plants, naming it as highly effective at fighting against toxins such as xylene, benzene, formaldehyde and trichloroethylene.

Large-leaf plants, such as the darling of the ’70s, the fruit salad plant (Monstera deliciosa) as seen in this industrial warehouse, look great
