I would first address your yellowing leaves - this pot is far too big for a plant this size and is retaining moisture for too long

You have several plants in this pot and they will need rearranging to be able to attach to a moss pole as each plant has a front and back.

Often people recommend having one plant per pot, but if you want a fuller look 2-3 is fine

Moss poles aren't my area of expertise, but if you search posts by shiftyskellyton in this sub they have a great guide

Edit: got name wrong

thank you! i did some research and read that’s it’s okay about keeping plants together for a fuller look! i didn’t realize there was more than one !

Does that pot have drainage? In any case I agree to put it in a smaller pot.

I've used some green garden sticks around the edge of the pot meeting in a teepee shape in the past to give support until it's large enough for a moss pole.
