Extendable Moss Pole
From: £14.00
Our moss poles help your plant grow so much that we have taken out the toolkit and launched our extendable range!
First, make sure you order a BASE pole which has a stake part that goes in the soil. Then order as many extensions as you like, whenever you like as your plant grows!
Some quick moss pole notes:
- Handmade to order.
- We only use sustainably sourced sphagnum moss. No peat bogs are harmed!
- Moss poles can add humidity and encourage growth in your plant as well as provide support.
- Extendable poles are made from Beech rods which are triple treated in Danish Oil for moisture protection.
You can get a pole or extension in three colour variations:
- Classic green/brown
- Pink
- Mixed (alternating strips of classic and pink)
Please note that this is natural moss without any dye, so there will be some variations in colours.

Some quick moss pole notes:
- Handmade to order.
- We only use sustainably sourced sphagnum moss. No peat bogs are harmed!
- No plastic used and we wrap in eco friendly packaging too.
- Moss poles can add humidity and encourage growth in your plant as well as provide support.
- Extendable poles are made from Beech rods which are triple treated in Danish Oil for moisture protection.
Perfect for Monstera and climbing plants with aerial roots which retains water moisture from the moss such as Pothos and Philodendron. Moss poles don’t just provide support and stability, they give your plant a more natural environment. This stimulates growth and helps grow larger leaves.
You can get a pole or extension in three colour variations:
- Classic green/brown
- Pink
- Mixed (alternating strips of classic and pink)
Please note that this is natural moss without any dye, so there will be some variations in colours.
Please check the height of your plant to choose the best length of the pole. If you are between sizes it is better to go for the bigger size as the plant will grow.
We recommend a pole about 10-20cm taller than the height of your plant.
Allow approximately 10cm for the length of the stake going into the soil.
How to use
We have made a video guide to show you how to install your moss pole – Check it out here.
Insert next to your plant with a healthy distance from its roots. Don’t worry if some moss is immersed in the soil.
Spray the pole with water when misting your plant, it will keep moisture for longer and helps to keep required humidity.
Attaching an extension
- Carefully spread any moss on the top of your pole to the side.
- Line up the screw in the extendable pole with the hole in the existing pole.
- Gently hold each pole and twist to screw them together.
- You can gently adjust the pole if it hasn’t gone on completely straight, the wood is quite soft and will allow a small amount of adjustment.
- Make sure the poles are screwed tightly together and you have a flush connection!
Care
We have made a handy care guide for your moss pole, view it here.
Please be aware the the moss pole is created from natural materials which are fragile and should be handled with care.
Spray once a week or as required with water to keep the moss lush and in good shape.
Moss will get darker and lush when wet. If you prefer this look spray with water on a regular basis.
Q & A
Hi, thank you for your question!
The extendable poles sort of sit in between, with a generous covering of moss. This is so that whenever you order an extension it will look 'right' with the existing moss pole.
Of course, as they are handmade there is some degree of variation but after making so many they are pretty much uniform in size.
Hope this helps!

Hi Fay,
Thank you for your question. To get the right size of pole, measure the plant from the soil to the top leaf. If your stems are going off to the side then pull those up if possible to get a better idea of the height of the plant when the pole will be on it.
Then add 10cm for the part of the pole going in the soil. You may also want to order a pole a little taller than the plant, this is up to your preference.
So for example, your plant is 80cm from the soil to the top leaf. So we would advice a 90cm pole (which would be a 60cm base plus a 30cm extension).
Hope this helps!
Thanks,
Craig

Beautiful moss pole, I hope I can keep it that way, and heavier than I thought it would be. It goes well with my pink philodendron.
Good quality product, does exactly what you would expect
Arrived very fast, well packaged, moss still lovely and wet. Easy to connect the extension. Looks great and I’m sure my plant will be happy when it has settled in!
The ultimate moss pole. Monstera chuffed.
