Yes Terry,

I made took some cuttings today and planted the rest in the sun.

I had asked earlier about my vanilla vine and found out it really was an orchid. Today I saw that my vine is about to bloom. I read that the one day flower needs to be polinated right away or it won't bear fruit in the form of vanilla nuts. I doubt that anyone will come around to polinate but I will try to catch a pictureof the flower. I had thought I'd have to wait several more years for this to happen but here it is.
