We talked to a plant care expert and creator of NYC Hoya Hangout Facebook Group to find out what exactly makes the best moss pole. While sheet moss is a commonly used material for this, there are a few moss pole alternatives, such as coir, a spongy type of coco fiber. A moss stick will then provide a water source to the plant. Working like a plant stake, the pole helps support the house plants by providing a resting place for the vine and plant roots (aerial roots, in this case). Moss poles retain moisture so that your climbing or vining house plants can get a drink while moving away from a more traditional water source, like, say, moist soil in a pot.
