I wonder if this is a relative of the Prayer Plant my grandmother had. It's leaves used to fold inward if you touched them.

It goes to show that everything living have some sensitivity. Plants grow when you talk to them and touch them as well as animals thrive more when loved. Now we have a shy on. Totally awesome

Here in North Carolina we had a Mimosa Tree in our yard. The leaves folded when touched and it had the most beautiful pink feathery flowers. I always loved it and still do.

It used to be in our yard in South Africa when I was a child. I haven't seen it in maybe 15-20 years. I loved touching it to watch the leaves fold.

Mimosa pudica is a creeping annual or perennial flowering plant of the pea/legume family Fabaceae. It is 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.

In Malaysia we called them "Touch-me-nots". They have lovely pink puff ball blooms, but also very sharp thorns!
