Plants that grow upward or vining plants, like pothos, will be happy if they have a moss pole to grow on. What is a moss pole?Ī moss pole provides plant support for a climbing plant and allows the aerial roots (or adventitious roots) of indoor plants to latch onto something. We talked to a plant care expert and creator of NYC Hoya Hangout Facebook Group to find out what exactly makes the best moss pole. While sheet moss is a commonly used material for this, there are a few moss pole alternatives, such as coir, a spongy type of coco fiber. A moss stick will then provide a water source to the plant. Working like a plant stake, the pole helps support the house plants by providing a resting place for the vine and plant roots (aerial roots, in this case). Moss poles retain moisture so that your climbing or vining house plants can get a drink while moving away from a more traditional water source, like, say, moist soil in a pot. One way to help our tropical potted plants grow is to use a moss pole. But once we take them home, we have to make sure that our homes have the right environment for them to flourish. These plants are so beautiful and lush and many of them are popular houseplants too. Tropical plants grow in the jungle and live in a humid environment with a lot of sunlight.
