What are some types of lianas?
Lianas can have a variety of woody formations and can be as long as 3,000 feet. Lianas have an interesting life span for a plant, beginning growth along the rainforest floor, then climbing up along nearby tree trunks as they seek out the canopy sunlight exposure necessary for plant survival. Lianas attach their woody vines to tree trunks and branches with sucker-like roots, sometimes wrapping themselves around the trunk of a tree several times. Animals-- such as monkeys-- use giant lianas as transportation between trees. Lianas and other similar thick rainforest vines are used by human populations to make baskets, furniture and sturdy ropes.
