SENSITIVE PLANT: Mimosa Pudica (Touch-me-not)
Touch me if you dare!
- The sensitive plant, also known as the Touch-me-not, is a peculiar shrub and is native to Brazil
- This is a perennial garden plant often grown for its curiosity value
- The compound leaves fold inward and droop when touched or shaken, defending themselves from harm, and re-open a few minutes later
- Only available while stocks last!!
- Potted plants are available for collection from our premises
- Courier / Postnet shipments:
- These plants are not only sensitive to touch but also sensitive to root disturbance😜 , therefor they will be sent already potted - packed and protected to minimise damage from carriers
- The sensitive plant can be grown in a semi-shade spot outside or sunny windowsill with a minimum of 4 hours direct sun
- Water every other day to ensure soil stays moist without letting it dry completely or leaving your plant with wet feet for extended periods of time
- Plants can be grown in an equal ratio mixture of compost and potting soil with perlite or silica sand added for drainage
- These are Semi-tropical plants and do not handle frost well. Protect during wintertime and watch them take off again during springtime
- Fertilise your plant with with a nitrogen-rich fertiliser once a month for optimal growth

Delivery was super fast and my plants were packed with care to ensue their safety. Included was a hand written note from Therese with instructions on how to care for my plants. I highly recommend getting all of your carnivorous plants and goods from Cultivo Carnivores.
