Aerial root is a type of root wherein it grows from the stem of the plant, i.e. above the ground. This type of root absorbs water directly from the air. This is exemplified by the roots of the epiphytes (e.g. orchids). Aerial roots are adventitious roots. Other plants with aerial roots include those of the tropical coastal swamp trees, e.g. mangroves, banyan trees, Metrosideros robusta (rātā) and M. excelsa (pōhutukawa), and certain vines such as Hedera helix (Common Ivy) and Toxicodendron radicans (poison ivy).
