I found the zombie plant on [|thinkgeek Zombie Plant Kit]  but I don't understand the science behind what can make a plant close its leaves and make it look like I killed it when I just touch the leaves. The funny thing was that I walked out of the room for only ten minutes and the plant looks like a regular house plant again.

Way fun to grow and even more fun to watch it Play dead~
