This plant is called “makahiya”; in Tagalog, ‘hiya’ means shy.
Upon being touched, this plant’s leaves immediately fold up together as if the plant is shy (hence its name).
so precious
Omg, I love these. They were everywhere in Indonesia. Back then I just go up to as many as I can and just touch them all, very fun! :D
