That’s what they do in nature! In their native environments, these plants climb up trees, rocks, and other surfaces, and they want to do the same thing in our homes.Ĭlimbing is actually critical for these plants’ health because this takes a lot of pressure off the root system by supporting the bulk of the plant with other surfaces. Moss poles definitely have their issues, but the truth is that plants like pothos, philodendrons, ivy, and monsteras need something to climb. After all, we have houseplants because they’re beautiful, so it doesn’t really make sense to plunk an ugly pole in the middle of their pots! The problem is, a lot of houseplant owners (myself included) don’t find moss poles attractive, which effectively defeats the purpose of owning plants.
For climbing, vining plants like many species of aroids and ivy, moss poles are often considered a necessity for maintaining the plant’s health.
