Epiphyte



in tropical climates, this phenomenon called "epiphyte" is very common.
different from parasite, different plants grow on different tree, but they do not take or exploit nutrients from the "home" tree.

we had a great time in this botanical garden near honolulu.
it was like a real jungle, and a good hiking, too.
the tour guide was so knowledgable and i leaned a lot about tropical plants : )
