We strongly recommend that you stake Rhaphidophora korthalsii, i.e., provide and train it to shingle on a flat board, moss pole, burlaw wrapped totem, etc. It’s one thing that the plant is beautiful about and will grow larger leaves. However, it’s not a must. Some people choose to let it grow on a hanging basket. Use gardening Velcro, twist ties, or a soft string to attach your plant to the climbing stake until it attaches. Afterward, you can remove whatever you used to secure it.
