The lowest layer of vegetation in understorey is herbs. In a forest, trees form the uppermost layer, followed by shrubs. Trees have crowns of different types and sizes.
These create different horizontal layers in the forest. These are known as understoreys. Giant and tall trees constituted the top layer followed by shrubs and tall grasses, and herbs formed the lowest layer.
