I really like the support you’ve got wrapped around the plant. Did you buy it that way or add it yourself?

Added it as it was growing up. We had a simple post support before, then tried a different spiral support but it was weak. This thing is sturdy and getting the job done. It really takes two hands to effectively manipulate it, so it helped to have my wife holding the plant upright.
Here's a close up of some perforated foliage
It's about 4ft or a little taller at this point, and has been a bit of a pain in the ass keeping up right. This cool spiral support has been serving pretty well, but has needed a few readjustments as it grows. We keep it out on the north-facing front porch where it's well shaded all day long with the help of big front yard tree.
