Overview
Insertion Spike for Moss Pole 10.5 x 3.5 cm Plastic Base for Securing Support in Pot White for Climbing Houseplants

The insertion spike for moss pole is a plastic base designed to anchor the stackable support in the substrate of a pot. The spike measures 10.5 x 3.5 cm and is fitted onto the bottom end of the plastic moss pole. Its pointed shape easily penetrates the soil, keeping the support upright. The spike is made of white plastic and is hidden in the substrate once inserted. It serves as a replacement part as well as for assembling another support from loose parts.

The spike closes the bottom end of the pole, ensuring that the filling of sphagnum moss remains inside and does not fall out into the pot. With a length of 10.5 cm, it reaches deep enough into the substrate, providing a firmer hold even when gradually extending with additional parts. The spike is lightweight and can be attached quickly without tools.

Stackable moss poles with wet filling mimic tree trunks covered in moss, which vines climb in nature. For such support to serve its purpose, it must stand firmly in the pot even when a mature plant is hanging from it. This is precisely what the spike ensures, anchoring the pole in the substrate and preventing it from tilting. Another advantage is that the spike can be reused and easily transferred to a new pot when repotting.

  • Type – insertion spike for stackable moss pole
  • Size – 10.5 x 3.5 cm
  • Material – plastic
  • Colour – white
  • Usage – attachment to the bottom part of the support and anchoring in the substrate
  • Suitable for – plastic moss poles with a diameter of 4 cm
  • Contents – 1 insertion spike (without pole parts and moss)

Attach the spike to the bottom part of the moss pole before inserting the support into the pot. Position the pole as close to the plant's stem as possible, ideally during repotting, to avoid damaging the roots. Push the spike into the substrate deep enough for the support to stand firmly, and gently press the soil around it. When extending the support further, the spike remains in place. If you need to remove the spike later, first loosen the soil around it to avoid damaging the plant's roots. Simply rinse the spike with water and let it dry before the next use.

The insertion spike is a small but essential part without which the plastic moss pole would not hold firmly in the pot. It serves as a replacement for a lost or damaged spike and is also useful for growers who want to assemble another support for a new plant from individual parts. The spike is designed for poles with a diameter of 4 cm, allowing you to easily purchase as many spikes as you need. It is suitable for anyone growing monstera, philodendron, pothos, and other house vines.
