Default Vanilla pompona

This plant has several clusters of buds...the blooms don't last long but at least there's a new one every day

Gorgeous. Is this the one you thought was V. planifolia that you posted a few years ago as a tiny little cutting?

Yes, Tin...it was an 18" cutting when I got it in 2005 and is way over 6 ft at this point. It is now growing outwards so I'm pointing the wild parts back towards the plant.
