Hops are fast-growing, hardy perennial vines with light golden, cone-shaped flowers used for making beer. These beautiful vine grows up to 25 in a single season and dies-back to the crown each fall. The vines and fragrant flowers make a sensational statement in any landscape whether you use the hops to make beer or not. Grow on a fence, wall or trellis for support. Our Hops plants are strictly females so they produce the most flowers. Flowers begin to ripen mid-August to mid-September.

Hops are also used in teas for insomnia.
