The slightest touch elicits an immediate response from a sensi
tive plant. Here seedlings are growing in a pre-planted container;
can be potted later for bouse use or grown outdoors.
The most delicate touch of a fingertip on a single leaflet of a
sensitive plant is sufficient to cause that leaflet to fold up in
response.
Run the tip of a finger down the stem from which leaflets grow
and all of them collapse, face to face, one against another. Hit
the stem, no matter how gently,
and it will instantly bend down
ward.
The person who named the
sensitive plant Mimosa pudica
in botanical Latin must have
had a sense of humor for Mi
mosa comes from the Greek
word “mimos", an actor, while
pudica means modest. A modest
actor it is indeed retreating
at a touch.
This physiological response
of the true leaves to touch
makes the sensitive plant one of
the most remarkable in the
plant kingdom.
It has been a source of won
der to successive generations of
children who like nothing better
than to watch the plant react to
their manipulations. Oddly, the
first two leaves to appear (the
seed leaves) do not respond to
touch.
MINING HISTORY
The first mining in the
Sudbury District of On
tario began in 1886 when
some 3,000 tons of copper
ore were removed. Today
the area is the world’s
leading source of nickel,
yielding nearly 20 million
tons of ore annually.

Os course these startling
movements do the plant no
harm. It recovers within min
utes (faster if it is growing in
full sun), but it may be several
hours before it performs again.
Sensitive plant, a native of
the sub-tropics, may be grown
from seeds for use as a house
plant or in the garden. Its only
needs are a sunny spot and con
stant moisture in the soil.
The fine, lacy leaves are pret
ty, the ball-shaped pink to lav
ender flowers dainty, the plant
is easy to grow. So easy that it
is available in pre-planted con
tainers at your supermarket.
Grow it yourself and be sure to
send a container to the nearest
school so the children may grow
and watch this wonder.
