The Sensitive Plant is perfectly named since the slightest touch can make the leaves fold up along the stem. This is assumed to be a defensive mechanism. With fern-looking leaves, this plant will grow into a small mound as a houseplant. If you provide the perfect conditions you may see their whimsical flowers form!
