I bought a pot of plants online, and the store said it was called jade grass. What is its scientific name?
Chinese name: mimosa

Name: mimosa? Pudika
Mimosa is a magical plant, which can predict the weather changes. If you touch it with your hands, his leaves will close quickly and open slowly, which means the weather will clear up; If you touch the mimosa, its leaves will shrink slowly, droop slowly, and even open again after a little closing, which indicates that the weather will turn from sunny to cloudy or it will rain soon.
The opening and closing speed of mimosa leaves can predict sunny weather, mainly because there is a small drum-shaped thin-walled cell tissue-leaf pad in the neck of mimosa leaves, which is filled with water. When you touch the mimosa leaves with your hands, as soon as the leaves vibrate, the water in the cells at the lower part of the leaf pad immediately flows upward to both sides, causing the lower part of the leaf pad to contract, the upper part to bulge, the petiole to droop and the leaves to close. Therefore, the opening and closing of leaves is caused by the expansion and compression of leaf pads. The expansion effect of the leaf pad is closely related to the humidity in the air. When the air humidity is very low, the expansion effect of the leaf pad is obvious, and the opening and closing speed of the leaves is fast. When the air humidity is high, the opening and closing speed of blades is slow. Therefore, the opening and closing speed of mimosa leaves indirectly reflects the humidity in the air, which can be used as a reference for weather forecast.
