Mimosa pudica, commonly known as the Sensitive Plant or Touch-Me-Not, is a fascinating and unique perennial herb that hails from Central and South America but has become naturalized in many tropical and subtropical regions worldwide. This plant is celebrated for its intriguing behavioral adaptation, as its compound leaves are highly sensitive to touch or mechanical stimulation. When touched, the leaflets of the Mimosa pudica fold inward and droop, a response thought to be a defense mechanism against herbivores. The leaves are pinnately compound, with a feathery appearance, and they usually have a pale green color. Mimosa pudica produces small, globe-shaped, pink or lavender flowers that emerge from fluffy, ball-like clusters. Beyond its captivating sensitivity, it has a reputation for its medicinal properties in traditional medicine, being used for its purported anti-inflammatory and analgesic qualities. Additionally, it is often cultivated as an ornamental plant and is enjoyed as a novelty in gardens and educational settings due to its distinctive behavior.  Zones 9-11

Germination

Germinating Mimosa pudica seeds can be a rewarding and educational experience. Start by scarifying the seeds to help break their hard seed coat, enhancing germination. You can scarify them by gently rubbing them with sandpaper or nicking them with a knife. Next, soak the scarified seeds in warm water for about 24 hours to further soften the seed coat. Prepare a seed tray or pots filled with a well-draining potting mix, which may contain a combination of peat moss, perlite, or vermiculite. Plant the treated seeds about 1/4 inch deep in the soil, spacing them apart. Keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged, as Mimosa pudica seeds are sensitive to excessive moisture. Place the seed tray or pots in a warm, well-lit location, such as a greenhouse or a sunny windowsill. Germination can be variable and may take several weeks to a few months. Once the seedlings have developed a few sets of true leaves, you can transplant them into individual pots or your garden. Enjoy observing the fascinating leaf-folding response as your Mimosa pudica plants grow.

They work very well.

I love these. I use them to wrap my tumbler before sublimating them in my sublimation oven. They work every well to let me see the process so I don’t scorch my design.

PERFECT HEAT TAPE
Number of Items: 6
Love this heat tape - it's clear so no worry about color transferring to products from heat transfer, very functional for these uses. I have ordered this several times and this is my product of choice for my sublimation needs. Sticks well to product, no residue left on products, easy to use, easy to remove after use, very durable for sublimation use.

Great tape for sublimation!
Number of Items: 4
Love love this tape. I used amber colored tape in the past and the color would transfer onto what I was making. This sticks well, is wide so it adds extra durability, and does not transfer color! If you’re just starting your sublimation journey, I highly recommend using this tape!

Good quality

Great tape for using with a heat press. It doesn’t leave any marks and comes up easy. I use it for taping down sublimation stuff and have had no issues on slate, shirts, metal or anything I’ve made it sticks well and comes off easy.
