How do you stake a monstera with a moss pole?

You'll attach these stems to the totem, leaving the more slender leaf stalks and their leaves free to fill in around the bottom. To encourage a stem to attach to the totem, bring the stem up against the moistened moss and secure it gently but firmly with a piece of soft plant tie, yarn, or cotton string.

Does my Monstera need a moss pole?

In the home, maturing plants will need the support of a moss covered pole that they can climb. If treated well, monstera can live for years, and grow to well over ten feet tall.

How do you tie a moss pole to a cheese plant?

Using a soft plant tie, tie the thickest stem of your Monstera Deliciosa to the pole at several points along the stem. Trim the more horizontally growing stems to stimulate vertical growth. Over time, the aerial roots will stick to the moss pole, and the plant will grow vertically.

How do you prop up Monstera?

The best way to keep a Monstera Deliciosa growing upright is to stake it using a support such as a moss pole, trellis, or garden stakes. These natural climbers can be tied and trained to grow up these poles and will be supported as they grow.

Where do I put the moss pole in Monstera?

Insert the wood end into the soil, positioning so that the moss pole is as close to the center of the pot and base of the plant as possible. Take extra care not to damage the main root system of your plants when positioning the moss pole! Start wrapping the plant's vines around the pole.

What can I use instead of a moss pole?

A tree slab or a natural bamboo trellis is the perfect alternative for your moss pole. The outer portion of a tree slab, of a live edge wood, would be an ideal choice to replace your moss pole. This tree slab will mimic the natural habitat of your trailing vines as if they are growing on a tree trunk.
