# Does anyone know what kind of pole this is or where to find it? I…

Does anyone know what kind of pole this is or where to find it? I would like to attach another on top because the vines are starting to drop back down since there’s nothing left to climb, but I can’t seem to find this pole anywhere. I got it from a farmer’s market that’s located far from me so I can’t go back and ask the grower.

\*edit\* Well, I feel silly. Upon further inspection, I realized this is a styrofoam pole covered in dirt. Anyone have experience with this? Not sure if I should attempt to take it off or leave it as is.

Interesting. I haven’t seen styrofoam used before. My instincts say that it won’t hold up as your plant gets bigger and heavier. The shape/style reminded me of tree fern fiber panels at first 🤔 I don’t know if those can be used free-standing though. Usually they’re used in large terrariums
