Repotting sensitive plants

The repotting season is far from over. Today, it is the Biophytum sensitivum plants that are being divided and replanted, just as one would do with Mimosa pudica…

This sensitive plant, native to the undergrowth of tropical Africa, develops delicate, highly branched roots, which must under no circumstances be allowed to dry out. The potting compost must be moist, without being waterlogged. As soon as repotting is complete, the pots are watered and placed in a warm spot under the famous turbo-neon lights to ensure their occupants grow well.
