Answer:

cuscuta and Vanda are parasitic plants which have parasitic mode of nutrition. They absorb nutrition from other plants cause they are unable to prepare their own food.

They have modified roots called haustoria which penetrate the host plant, connecting them to conductive system either the xylem or phloem,or both.

Therefore it's harmful for plants around them cause they propagate fastly making the other plants weak.
