Lajjabati Sensitive Shameplant Chui Mui Plant (1.5-3 Feet Height)

Rs. 449.00

PLANT DETAILS

Lajjabati Sensitive Shameplant (Mimosa pudica), known as Touch-me-not or Chui Mui, features bipinnate compound leaves that rapidly fold inward and droop via thigmonastic movement when touched, heated, or shaken, reopening after minutes as a defense mechanism against herbivores. This creeping perennial subshrub grows 0.3-1.5m tall with prickly reddish-brown stems, pink fluffy globular flower heads, and spiny seed pods, native to tropical Americas but widespread in Indian gardens for curiosity value and medicinal uses. The 1.5–3 feet plant thrives in moist well-drained soils across warm climates, self-seeding aggressively while offering antibacterial, anti-inflammatory roots and leaves for wound healing and urinary issues.
