what to do with a sudden vanilla vine?

[DirtyCoconuts]

My neighbor graciously gifted me this 7+ piece of vanilla that recently snapped off her's in some wind.


I am at a loss as to the best action

i can
1- just place it as it is in my bottle brush tree and it will probably take hold

2- plant the bottom in some sort of loose mix and then place adjacent to a tree of some kind

3- mount it on a board with some sphag and burlap?

4- your suggestion here


it is massive and the break is already calloused so i think it is pretty self sufficient- thanks
