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.
Plant Replacement Policy
*Spring Pre-order - Will ship once 2nd season stock breaks dormancy in the spring and can be properly quality checked. Estimated to ship by April 1st.
- Alpha acids: 3-5%, very low bittering
- Aroma: pleasant spice and floral tones, similar to Hallertauer, but almost no bittering
- Yield: very good 1800-2400 lbs/acre
- Maturity: mid to late
- Storage stability: fair 65% remaining
- Grower notes: grows well with good color, large bines are smoother than most American types. Responds well to more acidic soils with humic acids. Shows resistance to mildews and pests. Good cone size, pick -ability and plant habit. Easier to grow than other Hallertauer hybrids. Raised row recommended.
- Fully rooted plant - NOT a rhizome. A rhizome is a part of a hop plant's root system that grows horizontally underground putting out shoots.
