👉 The term "eriphalous" refers to a type of plant that is characterized by a series of branching and spreading structures, often known as stems or leaves. These structures are called epiphytes and are found on the surface of plants such as trees and shrubs. In the context of plants, eriophyllous can refer to specific types of plants with large, erect, branched stems that are often characterized by their ability to grow up into air-filled spaces in the soil.
