I’ve changed some of my plants over a couple weeks ago. How long did it take the philo to anchor into the pole.

#### Melissa replied on 2025-08-06

Ok, this is the backside of the plant. There was one vine that I picked that seemed thicker and more vertical…so I used twine to loosely wrap it around the pole. It’s been 27 days since I put the pole there. Two big leaves have come from that vine…w/another on the way….and the vine is hugging the pole more now than before. But i also ‘encourage’ it lightly, when i water it.

Thank you so much. I’m anxious to see some changes. I diligent about keeping the pole moist too.

You’re so welcome. I sprayed the poles often. This is the other one I have. Gave it a pole at the same time, but its kicking out much larger leaves \& seems so be growing ‘up’ faster. I wasn’t sure if I need to prune smaller leaves at the bottom to get more vertical growth…but the leaves are so beautiful, I don’t want to remove them 😂

Real moss poles always work better!
