Mimosa Pudica or Sensitive plants
aka sleepy plant, action plant, touch-me-not plants, shy plants and shameful plant.

⭐️ Hardy for zones 9-11 in the US,
(Wisconsin is 3-5)
💀 Toxic to people and pets if ingested,
☀️ need full to partial sun

You guys have seen the Bromeliad plants like the first two photos here at Sensational Stems, you may even own one, but did you know they are part of the same species as the last three photos!

Puya Raimondii or Queen of the Andes are the largest plants in the bromeliad species, having a towering stalk at up to 30 ft! There are three populations in the wild, with thousands of plants in each population. They only flower when they are between 80-100 years old, and once they bloom the flowering stalk will last only a few years, and then the plant dies, but before dying off sets 8-12 million seeds.

UC Botanical Garden and San Francisco Botanical Garden both in California had sibling plants that bloomed at a shocking 28 years!! One was believed to have bloom only because it was sun shocked when a tree nearby fell and removed the shade over it.

They were also a plant used for fuel, however the international union for the conservation of nature has listed these giants as endangered!

Titan Arum
aka Corpse Flower

Dennis the Menace references this beast, and it’s one of a few flowers that don’t smell good at all!

This flower smells like rotting flesh, it has a bloom that can be over 8 feet tall and 12 feet in circumference, and there have been people who have no joke, passed out because of its smell!

The closest corpse flowers to Coloma are at UW-Madison and The Domes in Milwaukee!

These guys bloom every 7-10 years and only for a few days! Thank gosh! 🤢 However they are worth going to see the next time one opens as they are becoming rare- due to their habitats being destroyed. Those that The Domes have are actually genetically the same as the University’s, therefore cannot cross pollinate. Even if they could it would be rather hard because they don’t all open at the same time!

The Domes have eight or nine corpse flower tubers. One bloomed in 2018 and was nicknamed "Pepe Le Pew", and another in 2021 someone suggested naming Pig Pen. However unlike in 2018 when they held a naming contest, 2021’s was not actually Named.

Do you know why they stink!?

Which would you rather make if we did a workshop on March 30th? Not these exact flowers- just the bird house or the watering can?

Comment
1 for watering can
2 for birdhouse

Fun facts:

🌼Flowers appeared 140 million years ago

🌷Several Centuries ago in Holland(known for growing tulips), tulips were more valuable than Gold 🏅

🥦 Broccoli is actually a flower!

🌻 some plants such as sunflowers produce toxic substances that kill other plants around them! 😩

SANSEVIERIA TRIFASCIATA
aka snake plants or mother in laws tongue.
This is the version you will recognize most with this plant, but there are 6 variations!

These babies will make you look like a pro, while all your friends struggle to keep their plastic plants alive! 🤣

These little guys grow rather large over time, they thrive on neglect, tolerate ANY light conditions and are extremely drought tolerant.

As a bonus- they improve sleep by taking in carbon dioxide during the day and putting out oxygen at tonight!
