History
Vanilla is derived from the fruit of a variety of tropical liana orchids. These are the only orchids grown for reasons other than ornamental. There are several varieties of vanilla, the best known of which are Vanilla tahitensis (Vanilla from Tahiti) and Vanilla planifolia, also known as Vanilla fragrance. The cultivation of vanilla requires special care towards the vanilla pods, one of the most valuable and expensive agricultural products in the world.
