Has anyone tried climbing their pothos?? (Not my photo!!) I’ve seen a few on socials and I’m thinking about trying it…

This was my Golden Pothos on a moss pole before I sold it. Top leave was 18inches.

Wow🤩

#### Mags replied on 2026-09-22

Ok, I’m sold on this idea now!! I’ve heard they even fenestrate sometimes

#### Mr Variegated replied on 2026-09-22

Yes they do fenestrate when mature. I tried to get this one to but figured I’d have to add 1 or 2 more extensions before it was going to happen.

Holy large leaf Batman! Stunning

#### Anastasia replied on 2026-10-08

From a comment above I see it was the Cebu blue that fenestates - so amazing. I have one and now I need a pole!

Do it!! 💚💚

### Amateur plant mama commented on 2026-09-21

I'm trying one now!

#### Mags replied on 2026-09-22

Keep us updated!!

### Stokrotka commented on 2026-09-21

I tried it. The newest leaf is bigger than my hand. The downfall is that it grows fast and you need to keep extending the pole, also dries out quick. But you should try it!! 😁

#### Mags replied on 2026-09-22

I guess I hadn’t considered how quickly they grow 😅 my pothos are growing so fast just as trailers

#### Anastasia replied on 2026-10-08

Beautiful. My goal is to have it trailing and growing up a pole!

### SJ commented on 2026-09-22

Is this only on moss poles or any trellis?

#### Mags replied on 2026-09-22

I would assume just moss poles for this amount of growth, because the roots grow into the moss for support, water and nutrients! That’s how they get so big

#### Anastasia replied on 2026-10-08

I would agree. I have one on a trellis because I love the tall and training look. I can say my leaves training down and the guys going up the trellis are all about the same size

### Belle commented on 2026-09-22

I love the look!! Definitely going to try this!!🌱✨🌱

### Cindy Branson commented on 2026-09-22

Mine climbed all by itself! It so enjoyed the window it was NEXT TO- NOT IN FRONT OF that she grew all the way across a 5’long window sill and up the wall 5’ and across the sconce at the top. Then we cut it, and cut it, and cut it. Now it is three climbing Pathos each over 20’ long and I am getting ready to do some more cuttings but not before March, now that the days are shortening here in the north.

### Cindy Branson commented on 2026-09-22

I bought a batch of 1 meter bamboo sticks to create stakes and climbing sticks, not expensive or unattractive and they hold up well in any environment.

### Tay commented on 2026-09-22

My golden Climbing up her pole and now the wall.
