Obama Family to receive a Pet TickleMe Plant in the White House!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) January 18, 2009 -- While the Obama family is considering what kind of dog and pets to have in the White House, how about considering a "Pet" TickleMe Plant?

The TickleMe Plant Company has shipped the Obama family, a collection of TickleMe Plant complete growing kits and greenhouses to allow them grow their own in the White House.
Has our new president ever seen a plant move when he tickled it? Most Americans never have (Click here to see it.) Now your readers can! TickleMe Plants will close their leaves and lower their branches when tickled.

A TickleMe Plant in the White House can help highlight the beauty and importance of plants. Growing TickleMe Plants in the White House is sure to excite others about plants, nature and gardening.

TickleMe Plants are a great first pet because they are easy to grow and require less attention than dogs and cats. However, they can still teach values about caring and being responsible for living things.


TickleMe Plants are one of the only interactive plants and they can live as a house plant in the White House for years.. They grow cotton candy-like pink flowers. This sensitive plant will respond over and over again, as it touches the hearts and brings a smile to the faces of those visitors in the White House who tickle it.

What is a TickleMe Plant?

Native to Brazil, TickleMe Plants can be found growing wild there and in other tropical areas. The scientific name for the TickleMe Plant™ is Mimosa pudica. It also has been called shy grass, sensitive plant and other names throughout the world.
