Sunshine State Vanilla Bean Orchid - Vanilla planifolia

From Madagascar to Tahiti, vanilla is commercially-produced in many countries but is not widely-grown domestically. Sunshine State Vanilla is out to change that. Sunshine State Vanilla is a special new Vanilla planifolia variety bred specifically to grow vanilla beans well in Florida, bringing the vanilla market local. It can climb a tree or be twined around a hanging basket. Since this vanilla bean orchid is tropical, it only does well in non-freezing areas, but it makes an excellent houseplant, too, if you want to bring a piece of the Sunshine State to your home. • Average mature height: Up to 40-foot vine• Fertilizer: Nitrogen/Phosphorus/Potassium in a 3/1/6 ratio• Light: Part sun to Full shade• Soil: Well-drained.
