This is again strange for Vanilla planifolia. The labellum is so shrunken, usually it is longer and protruding outside, sometimes even longer than the petals and sepals. If it is cultivated then it may also be a different species.- from Pankaj ji. |

Yes this is not planifolia. I need to check the labellum properly. Two species are found in Kerala, walkeriae and wightiana. - from Pankaj ji. |
