How can you get a spindly 12-inch tall Sensitive plant to be more bushy?

Answer

Pinch back to a lower set of leaves. Best place is two sets of leaves above an already existing branching. This will force it to send out more branches. It may look a little unsightly at first but the results will be worth it.
