We all know that plants are stationary, but in the magical plant world, some plants can "move". Mimosa, Sargassum and other plants will respond dynamically after being stimulated by the outside world. As long as you gently touch one of its leaves with your hand, its leaves close quickly, like a shy little girl.

What does Mimosa look like

The leaves in the middle are as long and delicate as green stalks, and the leaves in the middle are stacked like delicate green leaves
Mimosa looks delicate, but it is an easy growing plant. It can grow very well only by paying attention to the soil, watering, fertilization and sunshine

How to raise Mimosa

Mimosa is a kind of plant that likes to be warm. It is more appropriate to sow it when the temperature is relatively high
When the temperature is about 25 ℃, sow seeds in the flowerpot and gently cover the soil with about 2mm
Mimosa can be managed in an extensive way. If the soil is not selected, the vegetable garden soil can be planted well
Watering with a shower to keep the soil moist. In the next 3-7 days, lovely buds will emerge from the soil
For Mimosa that has just sprouted, don't rush to directly accept the sunshine, because the young buds can't bear the sun exposure and are easy to die
You should slowly increase the sunshine from 1-2 hours to full day
When Mimosa grows to about 5cm, it can start topdressing. Topdressing once a week can make Mimosa grow rapidly and its leaves are green ~
At this time, the seedlings are relatively small. For topdressing, we should strictly pay attention to "thin fertilizer and frequent application". Do not use too thick, which will make it difficult to burn the seedlings
As it grows bigger and bigger, the small pot for sowing can no longer meet the needs of its growth. At this time, it is necessary to change the pot. Prepare a 15-18cm flowerpot and plant it
In order to grow well, a topping operation can be carried out. Remove 2cm from the top so that the side branches at the bottom can grow. You can get a big pot of Mimosa
Mimosa generally has few diseases and insect pests. The most common pest is slug. If found, sprinkle some lime powder for control. If the plant is not growing well, check whether the light source is insufficient or the water is insufficient
The flower of Mimosa is a lovely pink POM, swaying in the wind, very cute. However, it should be noted that the seeds of Mimosa will affect the growth of Mimosa after the flowers bloom, and the plant will slowly wither and die after the seeds are born After the Mimosa is removed for normal growth, it should be removed
Note: there are thorns on the stem of Mimosa. You must be careful when playing with Mimosa. Don't get stabbed ~

Why is Mimosa easy to be shy

Mimosa closes its leaves as a way for plants to protect themselves. Mimosa's hometown is in remote South America, where there are often strong winds and heavy rain. Whenever the first drop of rain hits the leaves, it quickly closes them
This is because there is a part called "leaf pillow" at the base of the petiole of Mimosa. There are parenchyma cells in the leaf pillow. When the leaf is touched by the outside world, the vibration is transmitted to the leaf pillow. At this time, the cell fluid in the parenchyma cells immediately flows to the cell gap and reduces the expansion capacity of the cell. The leaf closes automatically, and the petiole and twigs droop at the same time. When "calm" for a few minutes, they recover as before
