# Okay folks, would love to hear your vibes/thoughts/experiences with…

_Posted by K on 2025-02-05_

Okay folks, would love to hear your vibes/thoughts/experiences with which of the below plants should get moss poles when I prop or repot them in the spring, vs which to leave as self heading/trailing, and whether you feel like any would mature similarly with just a physical support like a stake or trellis.

Contenders are:

P. Fuzzy petiole (a little sad after a battle with spider mites but should be fully bounced back by spring)  
Monstera albo x2 (I currently have one on a pole and 3 not)  
P. joepii  
P. imperial green  
Syngonium albo

Adding pics of the other monstera and syngonium for completeness.

For context, I hover around 100 plants and have 13 moss poles currently, so I know what I’m getting into maintenance-wise. For me it’s mostly about which plants really reach full potential with a pole and which are kind of a waste of the resources/maintenance.

All of them do well on a pole. They are natural climbers in nature. The syngonium transforms while climbing. Their leaves reach maturity and split into 9 sections.
