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.

El Ávila está plagado de éstas.

Cuando era pequeña y mi papá aún era Palmero de Chacao, solíamos ir mucho al Ávila y siempre le pedía a mi mamá que la encontrara para mí.
