    Ah, so it started from a node hehe. Very nice, thanks for the update. I have seen Vanilla being pollinated it is done at dusk using matchsticks and tooth picks.

    Default I think mine is about to flower too!

    I was given a vanilla orchid and I'm fascinated with it. Can't wait for it to flower so I try to pollinate it but since its my first one I'm not sure if this growth is the beginnings of a flower. Does anyone know?
    Thanks all!
