The types of epiphytic found include: Grosourdya appendiculata, Nephrolepis exaltata, Microlepia todayensis, Goniophlebium verrucosum, Goniophlebium persicifolium, Drynaria quercifolia, Drynaria sparsisora, Pyrrosia eleagnifolia, Pyrrosia longifolia, Microsorum punctatum, Cryptogonium phyllogonioides, Thuidium glaucinoides, Rhaphidophora pinnata, Syngonium podophyllum, and Piper betle. The most dominating epiphytic species based on the environmental characteristics of Lemor Botanical Garden Forest are epiphytic found growing in the watershed many as 13 species, 3 of which are: Drynaria quercifolia, Microsorum punctatum, and Rhaphidophora pinnata, with a percentage of 37%. The most dominant species found was Drynaria quercifolia from the Polypodiaceae family with 148 individuals.
