Natural climbing poles, for gorgeous houseplants.
No hidden PVC or harmful chemicals. Super simple.
Smart concepts
No more wasting time on poor, incomplete plant supports. Create the most beautiful climbing plants in no time at all.
This is how climbing plants become fun again!
Natural growth
Your climbing plants will naturally grow up our unique rough structure. So don't tie them to dead coir fibre with PVC (traditional moss pole).
Let your plants grow like in the Jungle.
Made from plants
Makes sense, right? To make plant support from plant remains? We use potato peelings and elephant grass.
Proven compostable and free from heavy metals.
Bring the jungle back to your plant.
Stop using moss poles made of dead coconut fibre, hidden PVC and growth-inhibiting iron staples.
Let your plants grow again on the rough (tree) structure they have loved for thousands of years.

Very good plant support. I love that it's natural and the clips are very practical. It remains very firmly in place in both PON and potting soil.

Simple, fast and affordable. A good alternative to classic moss poles. You do need to make sure to moisten it occasionally, otherwise some aerial roots won't want to stick to it. Several Philodendrons are climbing it. So far, I am satisfied.

It has simply climbed up the pole and is now attaching itself with aerial roots.

Absolutely brilliant! I've always been a coir pole girl (moss is too much hassle and maintenance, plus I like being able to move my plant supports easily), but I'm completely sold! The fact that these are organic and made from vegetation waste is fantastic, but they're also REALLY sturdy, super easy to use, and the plant clips are inspired! I have TONS of tropical plants, including many climbers, so I'll be buying these in bulk!

Absolute perfection! I've always been a coir pole girl (moss is too much hassle and maintenance, and I like being able to easily move my plant supports around), but I am totally sold! The fact that these are organic-based and made from plant waste products is brilliant, but they are also REALLY sturdy, super easy to use, and the plant clips are inspired! I have A LOT of tropical plants, including many climbers, so I'm going to buy these in bulk!

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my climbing plant need support?
Climbing plants naturally grow up trees. They attach themselves with aerial roots to a rough, natural surface. Without support, they will droop, creep, or grow untidily. With Kratiste, you give your plant something to climb against again.
What makes Kratiste different from a moss pole?
A traditional moss pole often contains PVC, coir and wire. Kratiste does it differently: our climbing poles are made from natural plant residues and have a rough structure that aerial roots can easily grip. No hidden plastic. No coir waste. No wire.
Is Kratiste good for my plant?
Yes. The rough texture helps aerial roots to attach, allowing your plant to grow upwards more naturally. This often results in a fuller, stronger, and more attractive plant. Monstera, Philodendron, Scindapsus, Epipremnum, and Hoya, in particular, respond well to this.
Is it difficult to use?
No. You insert the climbing stake into the pot, place the plant against it, and secure the stems with BIO clips or ECO wire. The clips simply snap into the pre-drilled holes. This way, your plant is quickly stable, without any fuss.
Will the clips damage my plant?
No. BIO-clips are designed to move with the growth of the stem. They hold the plant securely in place without constricting the sap flow, allowing your plant to continue growing freely.
Can I use Kratiste for my Monstera?
Yes. Moss poles are ideal for Monstera plants. The plant gets support, grows upwards more beautifully, and becomes less wide and messy. Especially with Monstera deliciosa and Monstera adansonii, a natural climbing pole helps the plant to grow fuller and stronger.
Do I need to keep the climbing pole wet?
Water as you normally do and occasionally moisten the stick lightly if you want to further stimulate the aerial roots. The moister you keep the stick or plank, the better the plant will adhere. The plant will do the rest itself.
Can I extend the stick as my plant grows?
Yes. The shorter climbing stakes are stackable. If your plant grows further, you can simply click an extra section on top. This way, the support grows with your plant.
Is Kratiste truly natural?
Yes. Kratiste products are made from plant waste, such as potato peels and elephant grass. They have been developed as a natural alternative to traditional plant supports made from plastic, coconut, and iron.
Is Kratiste compostable?
Yes. Kratiste products are proven compostable according to EN 13432. This means you are choosing a plant support that is not only good for your plant, but also makes much more sense for nature.
Kratiste is suitable for which plants?
Kratiste is perfect for climbing plants such as Monstera, Philodendron, Scindapsus, Epipremnum, Syngonium, Hoya, Rhaphidophora and Cissus. Actually for any plant that naturally wants to climb or needs support.
Why should I switch from a moss pole to Kratiste?
Because your plant doesn’t need a plastic core, dry coir fibre, or wire. Your plant wants grip, support, and a natural medium. Just like in the jungle. That's what Kratiste is made for.
