No, epiphytes are not a type of woody vines. Epiphytes are plants that grow on other plants or surfaces for support but do not derive nutrients from them, often found in tropical rainforests. They include species like orchids and bromeliads and typically have adaptations for water retention and nutrient absorption from the air. In contrast, woody vines, such as climbing plants, grow on other structures and may rely on them for physical support but usually have a different growth form and ecological role.

Plants with extremely large broadleaf evergreen leaves, along with epiphytes and climbing vines that strangle other plants, are typically found in tropical rainforest habitats. These environments have high humidity, consistent warmth, and abundant rainfall, allowing for a diverse range of plant life. The large leaves help maximize light capture in the dense canopy, while climbing vines take advantage of vertical space to reach sunlight.
