Do I need to wait for repotting next year to stake the smaller climbing philodendrons I have? Im afraid to damage any roots by adding some sort of stake. Is it necessary for it to be a moss pole? And of the varieties I have, is it really necessary to stake them? Will it be detrimental to the plant if I don't? They are all in 4" pots.

I have a Philo hastatum 'silver sword'

Philo erubescens 'red emerald'

Philo erubescens 'pink princess'

I know not all plants have the ability to reflex over a container but the silver sword has grown quite a bit over the last month or so and it's gained some length. So I wasn't sure if it will continue to just "vine" out if not staked.

I also acquired a long cutting of a Monstera adansonii from a woman and recently rooted it in water because I didn't really know what I wanted to do with it quite yet. I was contemplating splitting it and growing one in a hanging pot and one up a stake because I have seen it both ways. If I'm correct most climbers don't really show their full potential until they are doing what they naturally do (climb); like get larger leaves or more fenestrations. Is that true?

If you can't tell I've just become smitten with aroids, and am trying to read and find out whatever I can to make sure they're happy.

Also, if anyone has any sage advice in general about them, or anything feel free to let me know. Even if you just can think of a plant suggestion I might be interested in (I really want a shingling plant some day)! I'm all (elephant) ears!

Thank you so much in advance!
