Climb-itt™ Sustainable Climbing Poles - Great For Your leafjoy® Houseplants
The new Climb-itt™ plant supports from leafjoy® are the sustainable choice in climbing and vining houseplant poles. These 100% plastic- and chemical-free supports are designed with climbing plants' natural habitat in mind. By offering the natural, bark-like texture plants would find in the wild, Climb-itt poles attract aerial roots, creating a plant-to-plant relationship that helps them thrive.
Simply place the Climb-itt™ pole between the roots of your plant for stable support, attach the bio-clips and watch your houseplants grow naturally to reach their full potential. The bio-clips, made from the same all-natural materials as the support poles, bend with the growth of the stem, allowing the plant to develop naturally without the risk of pinched sap flow. You can even water your plants through the center of the pole to prevent spillage and evaporation, putting water at the roots of your plants where it's needed.
While Climb-itt poles will last for years indoors, they are completely biodegradable and will break down in the landfill. They're truly an eco-friendly alternative to traditional supports!

10 Most Frequently Asked Questions
- Why do natural climbing poles work so well?
In the natural habitat of climbing plants, the jungle, they grow on trees. The structure of the tree bark helps the plant's arial roots attach and asborb moisture. By offering plants the natural, bark-like texture they would find in the wild, Climb-itt poles attract houseplant roots, creating a plant-to-plant relationship that helps them thrive. - Why don’t moss poles perform as expected?
The market standard for climbing plants is the moss pole, which typically has a wooden or PVC core with dead coco fibers. This coco fiber is treated against water absorption and insects. Otherwise, it would mold in the greenhouse or introduce invasive insects into the country. Therefore, the arial roots are not activated well by the moss pole. - What materials are Climb-itt climbing poles made from?
The Climb-itt climbing pole is made from 100% natural materials and is nontoxic (independently tested by OWS in Belgium). The main ingredients of the climbing pole are elephant grass and potato skins, which contain lactic acid that prevents mold growth. The complete pole is sourced and manufactured in the Kratiste factory in the Netherlands. - Is the climbing pole the only 100% sustainable solution?
The Climb-itt pole is the only 100% natural and chemical-free support system for plants. Since (almost) the complete sector is relaying on Asia for their plants sticks, our alternative is unique. - How can I support plants when they outgrow their original pole? Climb-itt connectors let you stack your support poles so you can add to more space for your plants to grow. Made from the same raw material as the all-natural poles, they help create a completely plastic-free system.
- Why was the natural climbing pole not invented earlier?
Natural materials have been available for a long time. The key is not only to have natural ingredients but have the bark-like structure that produces healthier and more beautiful plants. This is a process that was developed and invented by Climb-itt. - How can I buy the Climb-itt climbing poles to help my plants thrive?
We are phasing the Climb-itt system into our growing program over the winter, so they will be available in garden centers in spring 2025. Retailers will also have the system available for houseplant lovers to retrofit their own climbing or vining plants. - Is the Climb-itt climbing pole much more expensive than the PVC version with coco fibers?
In the retail stores Climb-itt climbing poles are about the same price as the traditional ones sourced in Asia. Sometimes the Climb-itt climbing poles are even cheaper since as eco-conscious retailers often prioritize sustainable options. - What new products is Climb-itt planning to introduce?
Based on a lot of questions from our customers, we are going to introduce Climb-itt Shapes to the market by the first half of 2025. Plants shapes are not only expensive, but the bended iron doesn't perform well. They are unsustainable and the clips slide off the iron so the plant will fall off the shape. The iron shapes also do not stimulate the growth of the plant. Of course, the natural structure of the Climb-itt Shapes keep the clips at exactly the right place for your plants. They also help the plant attach itself to the shape which helps functionality but also looks amazing, just like in the jungle.
The 100% natural ingredients make the products very sustainable. - Why wasn’t I aware that traditional plant supports are unsustainable?
Since there was no alternative to unsustainable plant supports, retailers had no choice for a long time. Now they have a choice for better, eco-friendly plant support.
BONUS: I love plants and nature! How can I help promote sustainable plant supports?
