This rare orchid is unique for several reasons. First, it resembles a ghost when its white flower moves at night; hence, it is known as the Ghost Orchid. It is also leafless, and its roots attach to the bark of the host tree. About 2,000 ghost orchids remain in Florida, all the more reason to step up efforts to stabilize the current populations.
Orchids. Orchids are the most successful epiphytes of the tropical rainforest. There are over 20,000 species of orchid, most of which are epiphytes. Orchids survive as epiphytes by taking up water rapidly when it is available and by restricting its loss during drought.piphytes, which include many species of orchid, are plants that live on the surface of other plants. Although they live on other plants, epiphytes are not parasites. An epiphyte does not obtain nutrients or water from the tree it lives on. The only thing they receive from the trees on which they live is support.
