Definition
Describing the behavior or characteristic of turning or growing toward sunlight, exhibited by certain plants and organisms.
Etymology
From 'heliotropism' with the suffix '-ic,' meaning 'of or pertaining to.' This adjectival form appeared in 19th-century botanical literature.
Kelly Says
Heliotropic behavior is nature's way of being optimistic—plants displaying this trait are essentially saying 'let's follow the sun' and it actually helps them photosynthesize more efficiently throughout the day.
