"Mimosa" gets shy when touched, which is very interesting. Experts tell you: Don't touch it casually, the leaves are poisonous

I remember that when I was in elementary school, there were several pots of plants on the balcony of my class, including mimosa. Mimosa was small and inconspicuous, but the girls in our class loved it very much. When the get out of class was over, we would gently touch its leaves and watch it close its leaves and then slowly open them. I thought it was really interesting at that time.

Today Huahua will introduce to you how to care for mimosa.

Buy some mimosa seeds. In fact, there are many mimosa seeds for sale on the market. Soak the seeds in water for a day and keep the temperature at around 30 degrees. Soaking the seeds in water beforehand will allow the seeds to absorb moisture, making it easier to grow later.

Generally, when we plant mimosa, we choose to use small pots for sowing. At this time, we usually put 1 to 2 seeds in the small pot, cover it with some soil, and cover the pot with plastic wrap to prevent the moisture in the soil from evaporating. Then place the soil in a location where it can be exposed to sunlight. Observe it diligently and water the mimosa when you find the soil is dry. It will sprout within two weeks.

Sunlight plays a very important part in the growth process of mimosa. If there is no sunlight or lack of light, it will affect the growth of mimosa.

Mimosa is a tropical plant that likes water. There should be no lack of water during the growth period. The soil must be kept moist to ensure the moisture for the growth of mimosa. Especially in summer, watering is even more important, and it is best to water it once a day. In winter, we must prevent frost damage and take good insulation measures to prevent the mimosa from being frostbitten or frozen to death.

Many friends may think that although the mimosa looks small, its leaves are indeed slightly poisonous. The leaves of mimosa contain a toxin. If we come into contact with the leaves of mimosa for a long time, our hair and eyebrows will turn yellow.

Mimosa is non-toxic during the day and only releases toxic substances at night. Huahua reminds everyone that it is okay to touch the mimosa occasionally, but do not touch it for a long time. I believe that everyone will not touch the leaves of the mimosa for a long time.

Mimosa is small and cute, and is very suitable for little girls to grow. Girls must be very interested in it! This mimosa is as shy as a little girl, and it probably has some girlish feelings too!

If you are interested, hurry up and grow one!
