Epiphytes (plants that grow on other plants, not parasitically but for mechanical support) make up more than one-third of the total vascular flora in some tropical forests. Epiphytes are subject to severe environmental constraints, and their diverse adaptations make them a rich resource for studies of water balance, nutrition, reproduction, and evolution.
