If it can memorize stimuli and adapt to it, and actively engage in actions (such as closing it’s leaves when touched) doesn’t that mean, that’s it’s actually conscious?

That closing of leaves is a reaction to an action (touching).
Its basically the same thing as when a fly triggers the hairs on a venus fly trap. THey are not consciously doing it. And it has been adapted to remove false alarms (like rain) such that it takes multiple triggers on the hairs for it to close, not just one.
A sensor senses stimuli. The sensor sends a signal for a reaction to occur.
