Agreed, to turn towards the sun promotes the growth of the plant. We have
freewill and can align that will to God's will freely. The plant is not
free.
It still means to me that our freewill is important in both this world and
the next?

A plant grows towards the sun. If it "chooses" of its "free will" to turn
away from the sun, it is only limiting itself. In other words, to align
one's will with the Will of God is freeing, not limiting.

I would say that it is limited because it is exercised by a being that is
subject to limitations.

We are told that it is a greater world and in fact the real world so how
can
it be lesser or limited compared with this world? <<<
Hmm... maybe free will is actually a limitation, then?
Peace,
