What does it teach?
The Tickle Me Plant is a great addition to any Life Science unit and is a great change from ordinary plants. The exotic Mimosa Pudica plant is native to tropical regions and one of few plants considered a "tropism" (a fancy word that means it reacts when you touch it).|

Caution should be used if this plant is planted where it can reproduce. Here in Hawaii, it is a major pest!! We call it Sleeping Grass because it closes up at night and goes "to sleep". Watch out for the thorns. |

My Students Favorite Plant
Judy Houston, Texas - November 8, 2009
Delivery was fast. Seeds sprouted in three days. A week later kids were running into my classroom to Tickle the plant to watch the leaves fold up. No plant excites my students about life science more then the Tickle Me Plant. |
