What was it all about?

A range of research has shown a wide number of benefits to having plants in indoors, including for boosting air quality and supporting mental wellbeing. This short project drew on this existing research, reviewing and synthesising the knowledge into a scale of plant benefits. This scale was then used in the development of the Plant Life Balance smartphone app for consumers, which was launched in October 2017 through the Hort Innovation Nursery Fund marketing program. You can learn more about the app on its website here.
