Mimosa pudica requires bright, direct sunlight for optimal growth. It thrives in warm, humid environments and should be kept in moderate temperatures. Regular watering is essential to keep the soil evenly moist, but avoid waterlogging. Ensure the plant receives adequate humidity, especially if grown indoors.土壌
The Sensitive Plant prefers well-draining loamy soil that retains moisture without becoming waterlogged. A mix of loam and sand can provide the necessary drainage while maintaining adequate moisture levels. Ensure the soil is slightly acidic to neutral for best results.肥料
Use a balanced fertilizer with an N-P-K ratio of 10-10-10. Fertilize the plant every two weeks during the growing season to support its rapid growth. Reduce the frequency during the dormant period, if applicable.植え替え
Repot Mimosa pudica annually or when it outgrows its current pot. Choose a slightly larger pot with good drainage. Carefully transfer the plant to avoid damaging its sensitive roots, and fill in with fresh, well-draining soil.伝搬
Propagate Mimosa pudica through seeds or cuttings. Sow seeds in a warm, moist environment, and they should germinate within a few weeks. For cuttings, take a healthy stem, dip it in rooting hormone, and plant it in moist soil. Keep the cutting in a humid environment until roots develop.剪定
Prune the Sensitive Plant regularly to maintain its shape and encourage bushier growth. Remove any dead or yellowing leaves and trim back leggy stems. Pruning can be done throughout the growing season as needed.毒性
Mimosa pudica is toxic to pets and humans if ingested. The plant contains mimosine, which can cause symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. Keep the plant out of reach of children and pets to prevent accidental ingestion.植物の手入れに革命を起こす
