Hop plants and roots
Specialist nursery — 25 varieties grown organically and conventionally, delivered throughout France.
Bare root or potted plants? One- or two-year-old bare root plants have already developed their root system and suit larger plantings. The potted plant keeps its root ball: it is easy to plant individually and its planting window is more flexible.
Can you plant in October? Yes. Autumn planting is possible in soil that has drained well, is not frozen and has no standing water. Mulch after planting; plant bare root plants during their dormant period, as soon as they are available.

How to choose your hop variety?
Alpha acids determine the bittering power of hops. The figures shown are indicative variety reference values, not harvest analyses. Varieties with a low content (2-5%) such as Fuggle, Saaz or Hallertau Mittelfrüh are known as aroma varieties. Varieties with a high content (8-18%) such as Magnum, Chinook or Polaris are bittering varieties. Yield (high, medium, low) indicates cone productivity per plant.
