Moss Pole DIY Class

Moss Pole DIY Class

Have a lot of vining, climbing plants and want to help them live their best lives? Most Aroids grow and climb up trees and other structures in nature. If the plant feels anchored and supported, this allows them to invest in larger, more robust and often produce those fenestrated leaves (leaves with holes like Monstera) we all adore.

In this 1 hour class you will build your own moss pole to take home! Learn about watering techniques to help your plant anchor effectively.

Cost: $25/person
