Lianas - characteristic of seasonal tropical forests.
Epiphytes
Epiphytic ferns	Epiphytes grow on the outside of trees and other plants. They include mosses, ferns and orchids.
When epiphytic orchids fall to the ground, they are doomed to die - then (and only then) it is legitimate to harvest them for cultivation and decoration ...
Nearer to the forest floor ...	Under-storey flowers
As in many Asian tropical forests, the Zingiberacae are represented in Cat Tien - including: forest gingers, Zingiber spp. such as Z. zerumbet, Alpinia spp. (the genus that includes the spice Galingal) and the delicate Globba pendula.
Bamboo A substantial proportion of the park is bamboo forest which, although much less diverse than primary forest, does support a certain amount of wildlife and hold the soil (thus protecting riparian zones). This rather attractive 'bamboo archway' boarders the road near the Thac Troi (Heaven) rapids.
