Product Description

​​Each item is one complete dormant crown, or a field-ready plant, depending on time of year: a plant that is a minimum of 1 growing season old with a well developed root system with multiple breaks taken from healthy vigorous stock.  It is professional quality and since it is a live rooted plant, it offers the best chance of successfully growing and producing your favorite varieties of hops.

​
A New Zealand high alpha hop variety obtained from seed from a tetraploid smooth cone variety. A vigorous, high-yielding hop with better resistance to downy mildew than Pacific Gem. 24”-48” long sidearms.
  • Alpha acids: 9.5- 12.7%, beta acids: 3.6- 7.0%, cohumulone 36%, high myrcene levels
  • Aroma: resinous, herbal piney, lemongress
  • Yield:  Fair, 1000- 1800 lbs/acre.  (Yields per acre are lower because plants require more spacing because of longer sidearms.)
  • Storage stability: very good, even at room temperature
  • Maturity: very late season – not recommended for Northern latitudes with short seasons
  • Grower Notes:  a vigorous, good climber with long side arms.  Requires space to prevent side arm tangling.  Better resistance to mildews than other NZ types.  42”- 48” spacing or cluster planting recommended.
  • Trellis types: 14’x 42’ even/ cluster
