A third of Taiwan's native fern species grow in the damp, shady forest, and endemic Taiwanese plants such as the Taiwan pleione orchid live here too. The ancient false cypresses are a paradise for epiphytic plants, with up to 80 species living on a single tree.
幽黯潮濕的林地之下，茂密鋪滿了台灣三分之一的翠綠蕨類，一葉蘭等台灣特有植物也寄居於此，千年檜木更是附生植物的天堂，可以同時有八十種植物借宿其上。
