Sensitive Plant

Mimosa Sensitive Plant (Mimosa pudica) is a fascinating and interactive houseplant, known for its delicate, fern-like leaves that fold inward when touched, adding an element of fun and curiosity to any plant collection.

Light Requirement: Mimosa thrives in bright, indirect light. It can tolerate some direct morning sunlight, but prolonged exposure to harsh sun may scorch its leaves.

Watering Requirement: Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water thoroughly when the top inch of soil feels dry. Mimosa appreciates a humid environment, so misting or using a humidity tray can enhance its growth.

Mature Height: Typically growing to 6 to 18 inches (15 to 45 cm) in height, the Mimosa Sensitive Plant has a compact, spreading habit and may also produce small, pink, pom-pom-like flowers under ideal conditions.
