Hello hivean friends, Today I wanted to share some of the shy princess's flower photos with you. The uniqueness of this shame princess flower is that when the leaves are touched, blown or heated, they immediately "close". This is due to changes in pressure in the leaf bones.
Stimulation can also be felt by other leaves that are not touched. This movement is called seismonasti, which, although influenced by the stimulation of touch, for example, the tigmonastic movement embarrasses the princess no matter where the touch comes from.
Shy daughter plants cover their leaves to protect themselves from herbivores who want to eat them. I got this embarrassed daughter flower while on the way to my grandmother's house which is located in Keudeamplah Village, Nisam District, North Aceh Regency. I took this picture using a smartphone camera.
