Connect With Jan Gettmann:

Jan Gettmann, aka the SydneyPlantGuy likes to grow aroids indoors. He set himself the challenge to grow them as large as possible using moss poles. These allow Monsteras, Pothos, Philodendrons, and more to mature much like they would in their natural habitat. By creating content about moss poles and houseplants that is informative and fun, Jan inspires others to grow giant statement piece plants at home as well.
