You should be able to figure out a way to "tie the prop to the tree" from the ground. Another nice thing about using a metal pole is that you can easily add brace bands to any height to stabilize your prop using guide lines without making it bow. It's also helpful to plan what side of the plant you want the bunch to drop prior to bud emergence.
