humble plant
A humble plant, also known as the "Touch-Me-Not" or "Sensitive Plant," is a type of plant scientifically known as Mimosa pudica, which is known for its fascinating reaction to physical stimuli. Its leaves fold inward and droop when touched or shaken, defending themselves from harm, and re-open a few minutes later. It is a perennial herb of the pea family Fabaceae, often grown for its curiosity value. The plant is native to South and Central America, but is now a pantropical weed. It is generally considered as a symbol of humility, sensitivity, and shyness.
