Abstract: We prove that the open unit ball $mathbb{B}_n$ of $mathbb{C}^n$ $(nge2)$ admits a nonsingular holomorphic foliation $mathcalF$ by closed complex hypersurfaces such that both the union of the complete leaves of $mathcalF$ and the union of the incomplete leaves of $mathcalF$ are dense subsets of $mathbb{B}_n$. In particular, every leaf of $mathcalF$ is both a limit of complete leaves of $mathcalF$ and a limit of incomplete leaves of $mathcalF$. This gives the first example of a holomorphic foliation of $mathbb{B}_n$ by connected closed complex hypersurfaces having a complete leaf that is a limit of incomplete ones. We obtain an analogous result for foliations by complex submanifolds of arbitrary pure codimension $q$ with $1leq<n$.
