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 its really shy hence the name.
I would always touch those plants when I visited the grave yard. I called them “Sleepy plants” :3
I love playing with those plants when i visit the philippines<3
i always messed with these!
