Looks like something from Dr. Seuss!

Is this the same plant as the sensitive plant?!

#### Kai replied on 2023-07-15

Yes it is :)

### Danika commented on 2023-07-15

Wow! I cannot seem to figure mine out. Its 90% dead. I’ve tried more water, less water, partial sun, no sun. Whats your care secret?!

#### Kai replied on 2023-07-15

I just follow when planta tells me to water it’s also in a pot with two other plants though so it might occasionally get extra water. It gets around 6 hours of light. I just recently started adding fertilizer and that’s when it started to bloom the buds normally shriveled up. I hope this helps

#### Danika replied on 2023-07-15

When you say 6 hours of light.., indirect or direct sun? Or grow light? Indoors or outdoors?

#### Kai replied on 2023-07-16

It is outdoor on my balcony, and it gets direct sunlight in between the branches of trees and other plants around it, so it’s inconsistent, direct light 😬

#### Danika replied on 2023-07-16

Ahhh… the perfect understory. Dappled light. Creating that is a challenge! Thanks!

If you like alien looking plants, check out love in a mist! They are more for outdoor gardens, but they are gorgeous!

Just looked it up sooo cool reminds me of my fairy fan-flower

#### Danika replied on 2023-07-16

Ooo. Pretty! That reminds me of the flower fairy books when I was a child. The cornflower fairy.
