Q1: How do ferns live?

[Answer]

In some rainforests you can also see many ferns growing in the crooks of branches.

Like orchids and bromeliads, they survive on rainwater and the nutrients they get from trapped fallen leaves.

Ferns are more common in some rainforests. Tropical rainforests in Queensland, Australia are like this.
