The leaves of Mimosa are feathery and opposite, with more than a dozen pairs of leaves on the petioles. After being stimulated, the leaves will close and shrink, and then slowly open after a period of time. In addition, it has the ability to predict weather and earthquakes. If it closes very slowly and opens very quickly after being touched, it means it is about to rain, otherwise it means it is going to be sunny. If its leaves close during the day, it means there may be an earthquake coming.

1. Appearance characteristics

The leaves of Mimosa are relatively unique. There are more than a dozen pairs of leaves on one petiole, each pair is alternate and feathery. In addition, it also blooms. The flowers are spherical, small, and light red.

2. Leaves closed

The leaves of Mimosa will close up after being stimulated, which is its most striking feature. If you touch a leaf with your hands, the leaf surface will close, and prolonged contact will cause the petiole to droop. After you stop touching it, the leaves will slowly open after a while. In addition, the leaves will be closed at night and during the rainy season, and will recover during the day or when the weather clears.

3. Forecast the weather

Mimosa has the ability to predict the weather. If the leaves shrink very slowly after stimulating them, and then open immediately after closing, it means it will turn cloudy or rain. If it closes quickly but opens slowly, it means the weather is about to clear up.

4. Predicting earthquakes

Mimosa will have some signs before an earthquake occurs. Normally its leaves open during the day and close at night. But if it is closed during the day, it means an earthquake is coming. A few hours before an earthquake occurs, plants will suddenly wither.
