Mimosa strigulosa (Sunshine Mimosa)

Mimosa strigulosa, commonly known as Sunshine Mimosa, is a sensitive plant with delicate and fern-like foliage. The leaves fold up and droop when touched or exposed to strong sunlight, hence the name 'sensitive'. This low-growing plant forms a dense mat of greenery and produces small pink puffball flowers in the summer. Sunshine Mimosa is a great choice for groundcover or as a border plant in sunny areas.
