A padded mailer arrived the other day carrying the small root pieces that will hopefully grow into bountiful suppliers of glorious hops. They rest inside a moistened bag in my fridge, waiting to be planted.
A commenter on this site suggested Freshops, and I ended up going that route to obtain my rhizomes. The price seemed reasonable and the delivery was very quick. I'm a hop growing novice, but the pieces in the mail seemed to be nice-sized, healthy cuts to me.
I ordered two cascade and two chinook, and I've been warned not to expect too much the first year as the hop plants establish their root systems, but I'll probably be posting back with a couple progress updates.
