It may be Mimosa hamata or some other sp.; it doesn't look like M. pudica to me.

Agree with Vijaysankar ji;
M. pudica is an undershrub.

Samir

P.S.: had posted this e-mail via my mailbox but does not seemed to
have reached the group-site, hence posting it direct (you may have 2
messages if and when the other message reaches).
It may interest group members / owner to know that even though I do
not subscribe to e-mail from the group I get occasional messages from
the group and conversely I do not get messages in my mailbox for
comments posted in reply to my posts (though that does not require
subscription to e-mail from the group).

Stem angular, plant without prickles indicates that this could be Mimosa diplotricha var. diplotricha Sauvalle
