Flora

Ferns & Bryophytes

Non-flowering plants that reproduce by spores. Ferns have true leaves, while bryophytes like
mosses and liverworts are small plants that grow in moist, shaded areas.

Epiphytes & Parasitic Plants

Flowering plants with unbranched stems and large, often fan- or feather-shaped leaves.

Climbers & Lianas

Plants that climb on other vegetation for support to reach
sunlight. Lianas are woody climbers that are especially
common in tropical forests.

Palms

Trees are large woody plants with a single main trunk. Shrubs are small to medium woody plants with multiple stems.

Trees and shrubs

Plants that grow on other plants. Epiphytes use hosts for support, while parasitic plants obtain water or nutrients from them.
