Hi. I have had a few Sensitive plants in the past that I have killed. My daughter and I each got one last week and I put mine in a terrarium. I have been successful with numerous difficult plants when in terrariums. However both ours are already looking kinda bad. Any advice appreciated. We are sad.

I have one that I’m having great success with. Do you know which one? Mine is very low key. I just water it and that’s it. It doesn’t need much humidity or anything. Not even proper nutrients. I just potted him up two sizes because he’s got such a healthy root system. Mine is a mimosa pudica. I have him inside at work, in a sunny window. That’s all. Mine lets me know what he needs. Wilted= water. Closed in the day= not bright enough. That’s pretty much all I do. He grows prolifically every day. Sometimes I bully him to play. I’ll be sad if he ever flowers. I love this plant.

Yes it is this plant. Maybe we are over thinking it.

Also, if you touch it to much it will die.
