vulgardelight: The plants name is called “makahiya” and hiya in tagalog means “shy”. Whenever you touch the plants leaves, they immediately fold up together looking as if it’s really shy hence the name. I’d disturb entire patches of the mimosa plant when I was much younger - I wouldn’t let one leaf remain open. Heck, I still do that sometimes.
