Climbing plants have two opposing

The plants that turn to the right in

trend In the southern hemisphere, and
therefore, for the sake Of consistency,
it may be preferable to describe the
two kinds Of spiral tendency as re-
spectively "cIockwisev and counter
clockwise," which latter can be short
ened to "counterwise." The honey
