My first thought looking at your pictures was Stephanotis floribunda/Madagascar Jasmine! I haven't seen enough Vanilla plants to say for sure, but I am looking at the center line in the leaves, to me they look more like those of a dicot.
additional - I think Stephanotis would be a lot easier to handle than a huge Vanilla plant!!


Thank you so much, Ursula and Lindsey! I now know that I should un-pot this little Hoya out of the orchid bark and replace it with the more soil-y orchid medium D'Oh!

Again, thank you so much!! I was 90% certain this was just a weird vanilla orchid varietal and never would have even known what a Hoya was without your suggestions!
