About this Product
The Sensitive Plant (mimosa pudica) :
This plant is remarkable, to say the least! When touched or blown on, the leaves curl up and close and the stem of the leaf will descend. The leaves will reset and open back up. This plant is intriguing to both kids and adults alike.
Due to its animated nature and ability to close its leaves, it has also been called the sleepy plant, touch-me-not, shame plant, humble plant, zombie plant, and shy plant. This plant is a perennial for up to 2 years in a warmer zone or an annual in cooler zones. The plant will also produce flowers that look like little purple pom poms, similar to artichoke flowers.
Mimosa pudica belongs to the pea/legume family and tends to creep and bush out a bit. It can be grown in either full sun or partial shade but will thrive more in a sunny area.

Meet the Maker
Welcome to Blue Pumpkin Seed Co.! My lifelong love of gardening, especially pumpkins, led me to create this company.
We started as a small family business on Etsy in 2020, sharing our passion for heirloom seeds. Over time, I took charge to ensure this labor of love would flourish. I'm thrilled to now offer you a carefully curated selection of seeds directly.
The wonder of watching a seed grow continues to inspire me. As a fellow gardener, I share the same excitement and joy for gardening as our customers do.
