If you wanted to add a moss pole, it really could encourage larger leaves and faster growth.

#### sam replied on 2024-07-18

is there a specific brand you recommend??

I usually make my own D shaped moss poles. They dry out less often and you won’t have to try to keep hydrating, which is an absolute pain. There are a bunch on Amazon that you can create a D shaped one.

If you do go with one that you make yourself, I would only fill it up with sphagnum moss for as tall as your plant is at the time. It is exhausting keeping moss that your plant doesn’t need hydrated. I made that mistake with my first one.

Absolutely! They may not come with the moss, but you can usually get that at a fairly reasonable price
