There are a lot of us that wish we could grow them. The vanilla bean comes from an orchid plant. It's tropical and grows like a vine up trees. It gets very tall and that's where the flowers and eventually the bean is found.

You can buy the orchid in Aus but I don't think you have much chance of producing any beans. If you do get to grow it and get beans then come back on here and let me into your secret. Please.
