Plants With Touch-Sensitive Leaves Beyond Mimosa

Dear Mr. Creed, do you know any plants whose leaves close when touched, other than sensitive plant (Mimosa pudica)?

Expert Advice

  • Prayer plant (Maranta leuconeura): Leaves fold up at night.
  • Venus flytrap: Closes when insects touch trigger hairs.
