A timelapse showing the incredible movement of a growing vine, exhibiting both nastic movement to find, and then a thigmotropic response to grasp and hold.

I always wondered how my purple hyacinth bean vines know where to go to climb up the lattice I plant them next to. Fascinating! Not how I imagined, I thought it had something to do with detecting shade and going that direction. Or, growing away from the most sun. Amazing! Thanks for sharing!
