Item Description
From the personal collection of Wendy Huber, First Folio's Jeff Award Winning Props Design comes this stunning Mimosa Plant.
From Wendy: "I started this dramatic plant by seed just after Covid came, and is by far my favorite all year. It is very fast growing and fun to play with as touching the leaves causes them to fold up. The Lorax-like pink flowers are quite a treat! As a tropical plant, it likes strong partial sun, not to be cold, and consistent watering. Loves regular pruning."
Overall Size: 21" Tall, 15" Wide
Planted in a vase that was used on stage in one of our JEEVES productions, so it's also a First Folio memory!
Also known as shameplant, sensitive plant (Mimosa pudica) is a tropical member of the Mimosa genus. The stout, shrubby plant generally grows up to 18 inches tall, producing delicate, fern-like leaves and fluffy yellow or purple flowers. Sensitive plant is a popular houseplant due to its remarkable leaves, which curl into themselves when touched.
