Yep. Erocia and Cascade. They don't produce enough for real use.

You can grab a cutting any time the soil is thawed. Like now.

Andy, in Dartmouth has a bunch too. They were moves recently and may need a year to establish.

In a month or so I put out cuttings - not rhizomes - that people root in a jar stick in the ground. Most of the Cascades around town came from that plant. I leave them in a jar in my driveway.

I'm cleaning up my hop plants, and will have Hallertauer, Williamette, and possibly Goldings. Last year the Goldings plant was young and wasn't providing many rhizomes, the other two are gang busters.

Brewnoser, I'd love to get a pot or two of the Cascades when they become available.

Did you warn them about the wolf in the garden?

Heh, they'll find out soon enough. My neighbour will fill them in on it, maybe they'll learn to brew with them.

Hey does any one know where I could get and or buy some rhizomes around HRM? I'm looking for cascade and chinook and four horses are out of both.

Cheers,

Scott
