Native almost to the tropics, the range includes Mexico, Central America, West Indies, and Northern South America. The genus vanilla produces the world's most popular spice, a climbing member of the orchid family, the vanilla orchid is both terrestrial and epiphytic, it grows in soil and other plants sending out aerial roots that capture water and nutrients. It is a rewarding experience to grow the vanilla orchid and have it produce gorgeous sweet pale yellow/green orchid flowers and, hopefully, the famous vanilla bean.
