West indian vanilla is a tropical orchid species prized for its fragrant, large vanilla bean pods, which are shorter and thicker compared to its more well-known cousin. With its distinctive climbing growth, it relies on tree hosts for support in humid rainforest environments. Its greenish-yellow flowers produce an aroma that entices specific pollinators, a key to its reproductive success.
