I used a moss pole I got off of Amazon. Seems to be working well, but it's a delicate balance, keeping the pole wet and not over watering the plant.
0 likesi use a homemade moss pole and it’s literally the best thing ever, a plank of wood is fine since they grow up the sides of trees in nature but i feel that this gives them the best support! you can find a tutorial on how to make them on tiktok or maybe even find one on etsy:)

I was using moss poles but transitioned to cedar planks or bamboo stakes. Moss poles require extra work lol
