Epiphytes are plants that live on trees without harming them, using the tree for support. Common examples include orchids, bromeliads, and ferns. These plants absorb moisture and nutrients from the air and surrounding environment, thriving in the sunlight that reaches them in the tree canopy. They play a crucial role in the ecosystem by providing habitat and food for various organisms.

If you mean what plant lives off another then you are referring to parasitic plants, where the plant derives direct nutritional benefit from the host plant i.e. it gets its nutrients and water from the host plant. An example of this is the Dodder plant/ vine
