Question I am new to owning plants and I wasn’t sure if I should keep these in the same pot and if so should I add more than one growing pole??

I like to keep mine in the pot together it creates a fuller looking plant. I bought one from someone on marketplace on a moss pole and it definitely will grow up if you want a big big plant

You can keeo them together or separate. The smaller ones tend to grow faster if you separate. I'd give both something to climb on.

Looks Tojo Congo l have several the are nice plants with their big leafs l keep mine by the window but I don’t think they like direct sunlight but they like bright light

Give it a moss pole! I put this plant on a moss pole a week ago and she’s already got a new leaf!
