Vanilla Bean Orchid Plant – Rooted Vanilla Vine, 2.5″ Pot, Easy to Grow, Perfect for Home Gardens

Bring the art of vanilla cultivation to your home with the Vanilla Bean Orchid Plant (Vanilla planifolia). Known as the source of natural vanilla beans, this terrestrial orchid grows as a vine, producing exquisite cream-yellow flowers and long, fragrant seed pods when pollinated. With proper care, you can enjoy harvesting your own vanilla beans, elevating your culinary creations with this unique plant.

This easy-to-grow plant thrives in soil or sphagnum moss and requires a warm, frost-free environment, as temperatures below 50°F can be harmful. Once the vine reaches six feet in length, it will bloom, giving you the opportunity to hand-pollinate the flowers and produce vanilla beans.
