Vanilla imperialis

The Vanilla is a high light orchid and it is the only orchid that is a "VINE".  As you can see here, they will get large.  This is the bottom of a plant that goes up the back wall of the greenhouse and all around the floor.  These can be cut and just stuck in the sand or mix and off they will grow.  Please be careful though, the "sap" is an irritant to the skin and will cause a rash.

The flowers of the Vanilla are normally yellow to greenish yellow.
