Hello hive friends. good afternoon everyone. today I want to share the results of my photography about a flower that I found in my home garden. This flower has a unique and beautiful color, this flower has a very small size, I have to use a macro lens when shooting it.

flowers are one of the reproductive organs in plants in which there are stamens and pistils. flowers can reproduce by pollination so as to produce fruit and seeds.

Flowers are one of the ornamental plants that are liked by many people, especially women. Many women in general like tau flowers, ornamental plants, many women plant flowers in front of their houses for home decoration.

Putri malu or Mimosa pudica is a short shrub belonging to the legume tribe that is easily recognized for its leaves that can quickly close / wither on their own when touched. Although some members of the legume can do the same thing, the shy princess reacts more quickly than the other breeds. This wilting is temporary because after a few minutes the situation will return to normal.

The uniqueness of this plant is that when the leaves are touched, blown, or heated, they will immediately "close". This is caused by changes in turgor pressure in the leaf bones.

The stimulus can also be felt by other leaves that are not touched. This motion is called seismonasti, which, although influenced by touch stimuli (seismonasti), for example, the seismonasti movement of the Putri malu leaves does not care where the touch comes from.

This plant also buds at sunset and blooms again after sunrise. The shy princess plant closes its leaves to protect itself from plant-eating animals (herbivores) who want to eat it.

The color of the lower leaves of the shy princess plant is paler, showing a pale color, animals that had wanted to eat this plant will think that the plant has withered and become no longer interested in eating it.
