Mimosa pudica

Mimosa pudica, also known as the sensitive plant, features delicate fern-like leaves that fold when touched, offering high ornamental value. It produces small pink-purple pom-pom flowers mainly in summer. Non-edible and not known for air purification. Easy to care for but prefers warmth and humidity—ideal for plant beginners. Best placed in bright, indirect light such as on a windowsill or desk. Its unique movement makes it a fun conversation piece. Grows moderately fast with proper light and moisture. Slightly toxic if ingested, so keep away from pets and small children.
