Fortunately, sensitive plants are not especially prone to any diseases. Mimosa pudica is invasive in tropical climates. Use caution when planting outdoors as it can spread quickly and naturalize readily.
Sensitive plants are not shade-tolerant plants. They require at least eight hours of daylight and can tolerate full sun to partial shade. Place the plant directly in front or beside a bright sunny window. If the leaflets remain closed during the day, it indicates that the plant is not receiving enough light. Well-draining, loamy soil is ideal for a sensitive plant; its roots cannot survive in severely compacted soil.
Enhance the soil with peat moss to improve drainage. In its natural environment, the sensitive plant lives in soils that are low in nutrients. Therefore, it does not require overly rich soil or frequent soil top-ups to survive. Keep the soil consistently moist for a sensitive plant but not waterlogged. The sensitive plant cannot handle wet feet and will develop root rot if left sitting in excess water. As a general rule, water a sensitive plant once the top of the soil begins to dry out.
Due to its light and temperature requirements, the sensitive plant is most often grown indoors as a houseplant. Average room temperatures of about 65 to 75 degrees Fahrenheit are perfect for a sensitive plant as it is not tolerant of extreme heat or chilly temperatures. It can be successfully grown outdoors in USDA zones 9 to 11, although it may spread aggressively and become weedy.
The sensitive plant enjoys moderate to high humidity. Unless your house is particularly dry, the average household humidity should be sufficient for a sensitive plant.
Otherwise, add a humidifier close by or place the sensitive plant pot on top of a tray of pebbles filled with water. Sensitive plants occur naturally in nutrient-poor soil, so fertilization is generally not required.
However, if desired, you can give the plant an extra boost during the growing season by applying a high-potassium liquid fertilizer diluted to half strength every few weeks. Always ensure that you water a sensitive plant before fertilizing it to avoid burning the delicate roots.
Prune a sensitive plant regularly to keep it full, bushy, and prevent it from becoming leggy. You can prune a sensitive plant any time of the year. Since Mimosa pudica is a creeping plant, trim off trailing stems or train them to climb a trellis to keep the plant looking nice.
Propagation is generally by seed or stem cuttings. First, cut a branch with one leaf node and plant it in peat moss and perlite planting medium. By giving plants animal-like talents, Gagliano is mucking up the hierarchies, challenging the order of things.
