Sensitive Plant Mimosa 4" Pot

Mimosa pudica

Native to the tropics of Central and South America, Mimosa pudica is a species of creeping herb or shrub that is commonly referred to as the “sensitive plant” due to the intriguing movement of its leaves. 

Mature Size: 18" tall

Lighting: Sensitive plants are not shade-tolerant plants. They require at least 8 hours of daylight and can tolerate full sun to partial shade.

Soil: Well-draining, loamy soil is ideal for a sensitive plant as its roots cannot survive in severely compacted soil.

Watering: Keep the soil consistently moist for a sensitive plant, but not waterlogged.
