It's part of the Oxalis family, and like its relatives it folds its leaves down overnight or when stressed.

This tiny tree is an adorable addition to terrariums or high-humidity spaces. It's part of the Oxalis family, and like its relatives it folds its leaves down overnight or when stressed. In appearance, the Little Tree looks like a miniature palm tree, with a slim trunk and a bunch of palm-like leaves fanning out from the very top of that central stem. When it folds up overnight, the fronds move downwards and fold the leaves back, like a closed umbrella. Keep this fascinating plant happy with bright but indirect light, consistently moist soil, and stable humidity, and it will delight you with its adorable appearance and overnight movement.

Scientific Name
Biophytum sensitivum (sensitive living plant)

Synonyms: Toddavaddia sensitiva, Oxalis sensitiva

Originally classified as an Oxalis, this plant has had its current classification as Biophytum sensitivum, since 1824.

Common Name
Little Tree Plant, Sensitive Plant, Life Plant, Tropical Little Tree Plant

Origin
Native to Southeastern Asia, this plant is naturally found in India, Bangladesh, Borneo, Cambodia, Southeastern China, Laos, Myanmar, Nepal, Philippines, Malaysia, Taiwan, Thailand, Vietnam and much of Indonesia.

Light
Keep in bright but indirect light. Too much will scorch its leaves, while too little can cause it to rot.

Water
Only allow the top of the soil to dry between waters; this plant is happiest when its soil is consistently moist.

Humidity
High humidity is ideal for this plant, which makes it well-suited for terrariums or for growing in bathrooms or kitchens. This will also be helpful for keeping its soil at a good moisture level. A pebble tray will help maintain humidity in drier rooms.

Soil
A moisture-retentive combination of coir, fine bark and sand will work well for this plant; a mix designed for use in terrariums is ideal, especially when grown in a terrarium.

Food
Feed every four waters in the growing season, reduce to every six in autumn and winter. A fertiliser designed for houseplants, with a water before applying, will be best for your plant. Fertilisation is important for keeping these plants at their healthiest for as long as possible.

Temperature
Ideal temperatures are between 18-32°C; make sure it does not get colder than 15°C for any length of time, especially in winter.

Pet-safe
Yes, but too much nibbling won't be good for pets, small humans or the plant!

Sprouts Top Tips
Little Trees are classed as annuals, and only have a short lifespan - so you can probably only expect it to live in your home for about 18 months. In this time, it is quite likely to flower, though, so keep an eye out for flowers in late summer. They are quite easily pollinated, and if it does grow a seed pod, you'll be able to collect seeds for sowing the following spring.
If leaves are staying closed during the day, it's likely your plant is stressed, so make sure it's in a good light level, is getting plenty of water, and isn't too cold.

Comfortable, Sturdy, and Great for Long Hours
Color: Black, Size: Pack of 1
I am very happy with this office chair. It was easy to assemble, feels sturdy, and is very comfortable to sit in for long periods of time. The ergonomic design provides good back support, and the adjustable features make it easy to find the perfect position. The mesh back keeps me cool throughout the day, and the chair rolls smoothly. Overall, it offers great quality for the price and has made working at my desk much more comfortable. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable office chair. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great Chair! Worth the Price!
Color: Sky Blue, Size: Pack of 1
LOVE my new desk chair! I got the Sky Blue which is a really pretty blue in person. I work from home in tech, and had been getting constant headaches no matter what position I was in. I finally decided to invest in a better desk chair, and I'm SO glad I did! It's much more supportive and comfortable. I really like that I can flip the arms up or down, and the height is easy to adjust. Also, because I can flip the arms up, I can keep the chair out of the way when I'm not working by putting it right up against the desk. Very much worth the price! Assembly was simply and quick. Not even 30 minutes. Also, when I had a question about the chair, their support team was quick to respond and very helpful. Highly recommend!

Great quality chair, regardless of price.
Color: Black+white, Size: Pack of 1, Color: Black+white, Size: Pack of 1
Great quality chair, regardless of the price, period. So well packaged that it took almost as long to unwrap as assemble. Assembly was easy (loved the Allen wrench with sturdy handle). I am 6'2" and the fit and height adjustments work well for my height. Comfort is personal, so I like the semi-firmness of the seat. While the chair is constructed of heavy gauge plastic the base is solid metal with enamel finish: I love the look. The arm rests line up perfectly to my computer keyboard. I expect many, many years of service.

Great Value for a Comfortable Home Office Chair
Color: Black, Size: Pack of 1, Color: Black, Size: Pack of 1
I’ve been using this chair for a couple of days now, and honestly, it’s been a solid upgrade from my old one. I work from home most days, so comfort matters a lot—and this chair delivers better than I expected for the price. The first thing I noticed was the lumbar support. It’s actually adjustable and makes a noticeable difference, especially if you tend to sit for long stretches. My lower back used to get sore after a few hours, but that hasn’t really been an issue since switching to this chair. The mesh back is also a nice touch—it keeps things breathable, which I didn’t think I’d care about until I had it. Assembly was pretty straightforward. Took me maybe 20–25 minutes without any frustration. Everything lined up well, and the instructions were clear enough. In terms of comfort, the seat is firm but not hard. It doesn’t feel like one of those super plush chairs, but I actually prefer that because it feels more supportive over time. The reclining feature is smooth, and I like that you can lean back a bit when you need a break. Overall, I’d say this is a great value for a home office setup. If you want something ergonomic and comfortable without spending a fortune, this chair is definitely worth considering.

Excellent Office Chair
Color: Black+white, Size: Pack of 1
I just received my TRALT Office Chair. First of all, I was impressed with the packaging of this item. When I opened the box each piece of the chair was wrapped in plastic or bubble wrap. Everything in the box arrived safely and without damage. Secondly, the instructions to assemble the chair were very each to follow. I was impressed with the Allen wrench which had a handle attached to it. This made screwing in the screws very easy. I was able to assemble the chair without any difficulty. Lastly, the look of the chair and the comfort is exceptional. I ordered the black/white chair which looks amazing. The comfort of the chair is really excellent. My back is supported by the lumbar seat and having the armrests being able to go up when not needed is wonderful. The quality of the chair is definitely worth the price.
