Orchids exploit two broad types of habitats—terrestrial and epiphytic. Terrestrial orchids have their peren-nating tissues in the surface substrate of the ground, such as the soU or organic floor of a forest, or the surface sediment or peat of a wet meadow or bog. In contrast, epiphytic orchids use trees as a platform upon which to grow within the canopy. Epiphytic orchids do not obtain their moisture or nutrients from their host— they only use the tree as a physical substrate upon which to grow, either perched on a branch or as a climbing, vine-like plant.
