Safe Plant list and allergies?

I know the safe plant list is on flchams.com but what about those suffering from allergies. What plants are on the safe list that are also safe for people suffering from allergies? Anyone else in this situation? What plants did you get?

The regular stuff like ficus and such don't shed any allergens usually. If you're allergic to things, send your doctor your list of safe plants and ask if they're okay for you.

It would depend on what the person was allergic to. For example, someone allergic to pet hair may not have any trouble with plants, so it wouldn't matter which they use.

Most (but not all) plant allergies have to do with pollen...no flowers, no pollen production. Most of the common cham cage plants don't produce flowers, but some like Hibiscus might under the right lighting conditions. Someone who is sensitive to leaf residues or sap (skin rashes etc) might want to test any plants they want to use. If in doubt, wear gloves whenever handling the cham's cage plants.
