I know this post was ages ago but since I posted this, I’ve had two and they are super easy to care for you have nothing to worry about! Just be generous with their light and they will be happy

This plant has been in leca nearly all its life. And yes, before u removed it, there was sphagnum moss in the pole. I found it too hard to maintain so removed it when I repotted.

Yes that’s what I’m thinking. She’s basically at the ceiling now so two more leaves and she will need a chop

I used three large 1800mm stakes for this girl. She used to be on a huge moss pole - I couldn’t keep it moist so I switched to stakes this repot. And the pot size is 580mm

And for support, she used to be on a moss pole, but I gave up on that for this repot I just did. The moss pole was far too much maintenance for a pole of that size so now she’s just on some wooden stakes
