ciao! goodbye!!
Even though the leaves look a bit close together compared to my L.rotundifolia, it has the black spines, exactly like my rotundifolias. Hope this helps a bit.

One more pic of relation between hormones and leaning towards light. If u find this interesting i could find some time in future and write more about plant hormones and tropisms.
Mechanism is called phototropism. There are some other mechanisms but this one is essential.
Some other tropisms:
Chemotropism: movement or growth in response to chemicals
Geotropism: movement or growth in response to gravity
Hydrotropism: movement or growth in response to water
Phototropism: movement or growth in response to lights or colors of light
Thermotropism: movement or growth in response to temperature
Thigmotropism: movement or growth in response to touch or contact
