My sensitive plant is sending out many blooms. Does anyone know how to fertilize the flowers to get seeds?
You could try using a soft paint brush or make up brush. Going from flower to flower with the brush transfers pollen the way bees do.
I will give that a try! Thanks. @Soph1e

#sensitiveplant 15 months old, grown from seed. 30 Nov 2017.
Does it bear any fruit. Looks similar to Indian Gooseberry Tree 😊
@gauravsh6, it has a fluffy, lilac ball of a flower, but no fruit as far as I know. It's leaves are sensitive to the touch and will shrivel up for a few minutes. In warmer weather, it's a weed and spreads quickly, according to my friends in Asia😀
Touch me not 😄 @kaigia

@natii @valjones-hughes @cpl721 Thanks! This is growing faster now with the spring sun. The flowers only last for one day, so it's a treat to see them open.
True, @gjones, but there are many more to look forward to.😄
Really, only one day! They remind me of white dandelion, only pink! They are so pretty!
Thank you! They are a nice sight to see and fun to touch too! @cpl721
Incredible!!!
