Four varieties to start your hop garden
This pack contains 4 hop rhizomes, 10 to 15 cm long, one of each variety, for a garden, a pergola or a small hop yard.
A broad, all-round selection: aroma and bittering varieties for brewing, which also cover a pergola or a wall, and are hardy in the garden.
- Cascade (aroma): the reference variety for hoppy beers, with citrus, grapefruit and floral notes.
- Chinook (aroma and bittering): pine, spice and grapefruit notes, also useful for bitterness.
- Brewer’s Gold (bittering): an old, vigorous variety with fruity, blackcurrant-like notes.
- Santiam (aroma): floral and spicy notes, in the style of the European noble hops.
Rhizome, bare root or pot: what is the difference?
- Rhizome: a 10 to 15 cm piece of underground stem taken from a dormant hop plant. It is planted while the plant is dormant, from December to the end of March, and keeps for a few days in a cool place before planting.
- Bare root: a plant grown for one or two years in open ground and delivered without soil, with a developed root system (20 to 35 cm). Stronger at the start, it is also planted while the plant is dormant.
- Pot: a young plant in a small pot, already growing, planted in spring and summer, outside frost periods.
First harvest in the first year
Planted before the end of March, these rhizomes produce hops in their first year. Full production comes from the second or third year.
Planting advice
- Depth: plant the rhizome about 5 cm deep, buds facing up.
- Spacing: allow about one metre between plants.
- Position: full sun, in fertile, well-drained soil enriched with mature compost.
- Support: put up a string or a 4 to 6 m pole before the shoots come up.
