Released in 1967, the Willamette is a triploid seedless variant of the English Fuggle variety. It is currently one of the most widely grown hops in the US. It has a vigorous growth habit with longer 24-40” sidearms. The round cone structure is small to medium size. Willamette is a popular disease resistant variety for pickability, drying and baling. It also has a moderate amount of lupulin that is golden yellow in color. A quality aroma/ flavoring hop is the general perception of the Willamette...Read More

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.
  • Alpha acids: 4.0-6.0% 
  • Maturity: Early-/ Mid-August through Early September
  • Yield: High 1600-2200 lbs/acre
  • Storage stability: 60-65% of alpha acids remaining
  • Aroma: Mild and pleasant, slightly spicy, fruity, floral, little earthy
  • Grower notes: An older commercial variety. Crown buds form relatively high, so they need winter protection by hilling the rows in fall or mulching. A “workhorse” hop, but has to be sourced carefully- there is a lot of  virus infected rhizome stock being distributed from older yards of Willamette. Of the Fuggle types, Willamette is the slowest to break winter dormancy. Needs warm temperatures to really get going – does less than optimum in areas with lake effect cooling or if spaced too tightly. Tolerant of a wider range of pH and soil types than most hops.
