Mimosa pudica, commonly known as the sensitive plant, features delicate pink, fluffy flower clusters and fern-like green leaves. Typically growing up to 2 feet tall, this tropical perennial thrives both indoors and outdoors in warm climates. It prefers bright, indirect light and well-drained soil with moderate watering. Its unique defense mechanism causes the leaves to fold when touched, making it a fascinating addition to any collection.
