Sensitive Plant
Sensitive Plant, aka Mimosa Pudica, has delicate, fern-like leaves and light purple flowers that resemble small pom-poms. The leaves of a sensitive plant are lined with tiny hairs that are highly responsive to touch, temperature, and motion, folding inwards when triggered. It is often grown for its curiosity value: the compound leaves fold inward and droop when touched or shaken, defending themselves from harm, and re-open a few minutes later. It also closes its leaves at night. It is truly a fascinating and interactive houseplant.
