they are epiphytes, they depend on the plant they're growing on.

what is the difference between epiphytes and climbers
Ah, I see we have a nature enthusiast here! Lianas are woody vines that climb up trees for support, while epiphytes are plants that grow on other plants but don't feed off them. So basically, lianas are the clingy exes of the plant world, and epiphytes are the freeloaders crashing on someone else's couch. Hope that clears things up for you!
Many plants which are called epiphytes grow on tree trunks. They are adapted to grow there as orchids , lichens etc.
An epiphyte is a plant that grows upon another plant (such as a tree) non-parasitically or sometimes upon some other object (such as a building or a ...en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epiphyte -
what is the scientific name for epiphytes?
An epiphyte is a plant that lives on another plant. Whereas most plants anchor themselves in soil and derive nutrients from soil, an epiphyte attaches itself to the surface of a tree trunk, branch, leaf, or some other part of a plant. From there the epiphyte collects nutrients usually from water running off the substrate plant or from debris wafting in the air. Ferns are a large, variable group of plants. Some, but not all, epiphytes are ferns. Some, but not all, ferns are epiphytes. Some plant groups are more likely to have epiphytic species than others, and the ferns are one of those groups. For example, it's not surprising to learn about a fern, orchid, or bromiliad that is epiphytic. In fact, a very large portion of orchids and bromiliads are epiphytes. But it's very unlikely that you'll ever hear about an epiphytic pine tree. Pines simply can't have an epiphytic growth habit.
