# Probably should moss pole this guy soon. I do have big plans for him…

Probably should moss pole this guy soon. I do have big plans for him in my office once the construction is done, and those plans didn’t include a moss pole lol. But I might have to work it in. Its longest stem is 6ft long lol.

This picture of it on the stove is the day I brought it home on October 9th 2025

Yea my plan is to have that one vined out on a shelf above the window and making its way downtown haha! , I mean grown down and around the shelves flanking the window.

Here’s the before pic, as well as a picture I made with ChatGPT. The plaster has to come down anyways so we’re just gonna leave it exposed brick.
