As part of a breeding program of vanilla, in the present work established the following objectives: a) to obtain interspecific hybrids of /Vanilla planifolia/ and /V. pompon/a by hand pollination, b) determining the growth medium suitable for germination, and
finally, c) characterize the main morphological and physiological variables of the process of germination. In general, the obtained hybrid seeds that had higher germination percentage (85%) were interspecific crosses of /V. planifolia/ and V. pompona, followed by reverse cross /V. planifolia/ and /V. pompon/ (57.9%). Seed product /V. pompon/a autopolinizada were very low germination (10.8%) while those obtained from /V. planifolia/ autopolinizada showed no germination in any way. The most efficient culture medium for all treatments was the MS added to 400 mg / l glutamine and 80 mg / liter
of adenine sulfate.
