Like other houseplants, the Howea helps absorb harmful substances from the air and convert them into oxygen. That way the plant contributes to healthier air quality in your home.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIs the Kentia palm toxic?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Howea forsteriana is not toxic and sits in our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/groen-bubble.shop\/en\/collections\/diervriendelijke-kamerplanten\"\u003epet-friendly houseplants\u003c\/a\u003e category.
