So sensitive a plant that if you touch the leaves they close up!. So shy!. Pot plant. Groundcover.
Evergreen shrub, creeping, mat-forming plant. Lovely fluffy pink flowers. Pinnate foliage which fold up at the slightest touch, windy conditions and at night. Prefers fertile and well drained soils.
Soak the seeds for 248h and then proceed to the sowing with temperatures of 20ºC.
