Plant Slant

Perhaps you've noticed, in potted plants especially, a collective leaning and growth toward the sun. Upon rotating a flower pot such that the leaves face the opposite direction, the leaves will turn again toward the light source (and reasonably so, as they receive the most energy this way.) In turn, this shifting gives strength to their stems, and serves to add overall fortification to the whole plant, as well as to continue growth into its intended characteristics and function.
