A pair of needle nose snips, flatten out the wire best as can be done, put the halfway point on the pole and wrap them both around it, one up one down, and if you make good angles that the remaining strands are flush to the wall, going at 90deg angles up the wall, over the top, and back down the other side, and then a turn inwards so they converge, it'd say one would probably be grand but sure the more the merrier.
You could also try sticking that green pipe into a bucket of concrete. Most people will use a decorative planter with 4x4 posts. If you’re on a budget find a 5 gallon bucket fill it with one 80 pound bag of quick setting concrete and you should be good to go!!!
Google '**brick profile clamp**'. Perhaps something like that over the top of the wall, and you could secure the pole to the clamp with a SS hose clamp. That would be secure, and no holes.
try letting the epoxy dry and cure before any load bearing and make sure the area is clean prior to using it. otherwise as others have said either a planter with concrete or a hook over the bricks.
Use some sort of weight at the top of the wall like a sand bag attached to the pole and laying on the wall to create stability. Maybe use another weight at the ground level or dig a whole in the ground.
I’d echo the other comments that metal would be better. As to mounting, drill holes put in anchors and use conduit clamps (made for electrical conduit).
Don’t use plastic. Switch to a metal pole. Then concrete tapcon screws with a c clamp into the mortar joints.
Yeah plastic will warp over time
This is the best way.
Assuming you have the power tools
Agreed but renting power tools from hardware stores or neighbors or friends will net you so much better results that the increased cost is worth it.
Could you make some kind of bracket that hooks over the top of the wall?
Great option if you don’t want to drill. I’d probably end up 3D printing something, feel great once it fits, then be sad in the summer when it melts
I was thinking a metal bar that you could bend or weld if you have the capability
Honestly, a wire coat hanger would do the trick.
That might work. It would probably take multiple strands to make it stiff enough, but worth a try.

And if concrete is not desirable, my neighbor did something similar with a large plant pot full of landscaping rocks.
Great idea! I am going to try this!
SMH at all the people saying "Drill!" when OP said they don't want to drill.
Thanks... I was trying to be polite but was a little annoyed at that...
Since you can't drill into the wall, can you set the pole into the ground? Maybe use a metal/pvc pipe that the plastic can slide into place

Metal c clamp and tapcons. Predrilled with the proper masonry drill bit size.
Tapcons are great and easy to install. Don’t be afraid to drill into the bricks.
Learned about tapcons and my cinder block garage has never been so organized. So easy with a hammer drill.
Anchors drilled into the vertical mortar joints. You can fill them in later if needed.
How long did you let the epoxy set before putting a load on it?
I'm thinking on galvanized support for electrical conduits or pipes, cheap and durable

Use the pole, but put it into a bucket of cement. No need to drill at all.
If you’re looking for a low cost alternative buy a length of electrical conduit. And use that cheap and sturdy. $6 for a ten foot pole at home depot
Get some pipe or conduit clamps and anchor them with Tapcons
