When I first started using poles I thought it was just about some thing to climb. The idea of making it an extension of the pot was really helpful in my understanding of how they really work. 😁

I've started collecting philadendrons and monsteras a few months ago, and i knew that eventually, i'd had to give them moss poles, but they are so expensive, and i was worried what I'd do when they outgrow them. This series was a true eye opener, and has completely changed my view on plant care. Especially this moss pole making video is so easy and great! Thank you for these videos!

Thank you for this, was wondering how people with plants that tall bought moss poles online when they are expensive. Now I know, and now I know they are very simple and easy to make. Will be buying mesh for sure, already own ultra compacted sphagnum so I’m set there for a bit. Also going to be redoing my coco coir ones that I bought, with sphagnum. Thinking they will work better then.

Thanks for the valuable tutorial. I'm new to aroids but not new to tropicals and subtropicals. I view a variety of house plant videos and I wondered why I saw so many moss poles. Years ago I attended an orchids seminar, which began by saying that orchids aren't difficult; they're different. I characterize the difference is orchid roots (through velumen layer) absorb water differently than terrestrial plants having root hairs. I suppose my orchid experience will help if I invest in aroids. Your plants are amazing; so many channels on house plants have a backdrop of shelves and shelves of juvenile 12" plants and cuttings; your collection is impressive, with your floor-to-ceiling scale! I just subscribed so I look forward to future enriching videos!

Oh now this looks like an easy moss pole! I'd actually bought the 25mm mesh for a different project (planter pockets on trees with felt inserts) but will exchange it for the 12.5mm! You can't get big leaves without aerial roots, & I've been meaning to do a moss pole for this reason (had a 5m long M. adansonii, leaves still small!). I remember how huuuuge pothos leaves got up palm trees where I used to live, they looked like whitish split monsteras! I'm still concerned that for my home/porch that the moss may dry out too fast, seeing as I'm not in a humid sub/tropical climate (Melbourne here although getting more bouts of humid subtropical), but hopefully less than if the moss was wrapped around a solid pole. And it looks way easier just to pour the water in from the top than to mist it or wick it or whatever. And I assume with this method the pole can be externally staked if it's extended. And it's not ugly (to me)! Thanks! Great plants! Now to make moss poles for my narrow, adansonii, hoya, dragontail, & anything else creeping indoors I haven't killed yet.

I made my first moss poles a couple of weeks ago and have a few questions/observations: - my moss poles are lop-sided and don't stand up well. I think this might be because I didn't roll them evenly. Any tips? - it's winter here in Canada and humidity is around 30%, so the moss dried out almost immediately. I think I'll need to water every 3-4 days. - water is dripping a lot when I water the poles, but I haven't tried using plastic bottles with holes in the lid yet. I'm guessing that this will help because I can water more slowly.
