Many parasitic plants which depend on their host plant for their sustenance;
and also epiphytes, which do not take food from their host, but merely live there.
In NZ, we have some flax-like plants called Astelia, which may weigh 50 to 100 kg; which live in the forks of trees, and accumulate both soil, and a variety of other plants, and even some environment-sensitive worms.
They live in the canopy section of a rainforest.
Humming birds live in the rainfroest canopy layer because their wings fit in and lets the wind glide on their face and it
The layers of a tropical rainforest are the emergent layer, canopy, understory, and forest floor. The emergent layer contains the tallest trees that reach above the canopy, the canopy is made up of densely packed trees that form a roof over the forest, the understory consists of smaller trees and plants underneath the canopy, and the forest floor is covered with decaying organic matter and plants that thrive in low light conditions.
Plants in the canopy layer of the rainforest often include tall trees like mahogany, kapok, and rubber trees. These trees have adapted to receive the most sunlight and are home to many insects, birds, and other animals. They form the upper layer of the rainforest where most of the photosynthesis and animal activity takes place.
Most live n the understory or the emergent layer!

Orangutans live in the rainforest canopy. Other animals that live in the canopy are the sloth, toucans, parrots, spider monkeys, and lemurs. The layer under the canopy is called the understory and the layer below that is the rainforest floor.
