उत्तर

Small herbaceous plants that grow on higher plants but do not obtain their nourishment from them are called epiphytes.

Explanation:

Epiphytes are small herbaceous plants that grow on higher plants but do not obtain their nourishment from them. They use the host plant simply as a support to access sunlight and air, deriving their nutrients from rain, air, and debris around them, without harming the host. This distinguishes them from parasites, which do derive nourishment from the host plant.
