📝 Description

Biophytum sensitivum, often called the Little Tree Plant or Sensitive Plant (not to be confused with Mimosa pudica), is a fascinating miniature wonder. Its tiny, palm-like shape and delicate, feathery leaves give it a tropical bonsai look—but it’s the movement that captures attention. When touched or disturbed, the leaflets slowly fold inwards, a gentle, reactive motion that’s both calming and captivating.

Native to Southeast Asia and parts of India, Biophytum sensitivum has long been valued in traditional medicine, but it’s also a beautiful addition to plant collections for its interactive nature and compact size. It thrives in warm, humid conditions with soft, indirect light, and prefers consistently moist (but not soggy) soil. A quiet, responsive plant that brings a bit of natural curiosity indoors.
