	Mimosa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mimosa is a genus of about 400 species of herbs and shrubs, in the subfamily Mimosoideae of the legume family Fabaceae, with evenly bipinnate leaves.
		The best-known species is Mimosa pudica, which is also known as the sensitive plant or sleeping grass because of the way it folds its leaves down when touched; many others also fold their leaves in the evening.
		Members of this genus are among the few plants capable of rapid movement; examples outside of Mimosa include the Telegraph plant, and the Venus Flytrap.

		The best-known species is Mimosa pudica, also known as the Sensitive plant, or Sleeping grass, because of the way it folds its leaves down when touched; it and many others also fold their leaves in the evening.
		It is native to southern Mexico and Central America but is widely cultivated elsewhere for its curiosity value, both as an indoor plant in temperate areas, and outdoors in the tropics, where it has become an invasive weed in some areas, notably Hawaii.
		This plant is one of a few plants capible of rapid movement, including the Telegraph plant, and the Venus Flytrap.

	mimosa - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about mimosa
		Any of a group of leguminous trees, shrubs, or herbs belonging to the mimosa family, found in tropical and subtropical regions.
		Vast forests of palms, arecs, bamboo, teakwood, of the gigantic mimosa, and tree-like ferns covered the foreground, while behind, the graceful outlines of the mountains were traced against the sky; and along the coasts swarmed by thousands the precious swallows whose nests furnish a luxurious dish to the tables of the Celestial Empire.
		The perfume of flowers--the faint sweetness of mimosa and the sicklier fragrance of hyacinths--seemed almost overwhelming, for the fire was warm and the windows closed.
