dextrorseadj.

/dɛkˈstrɔːs/
Etymology: < Latin dextrorsum, -sus, for dextrovorsum, -versum, turned to the right.
Turned towards the right hand. Used by botanists in two opposite senses. The earlier authors, Linnæus, the de Candolles, etc., used it as = ‘to the right-hand of the observer’; modern botanists generally use it as = ‘to the right hand of the plant, or of a person round whom the plant might be twining’, which is to the left of the external observer.)
