The ones I got for Willamette and Cascade were really big, almost root balls and actually gave me a decent harvest year one.

i'm considering ordering mine from Great Lakes (Great Lakes Hops - Hop plants for sale, Beer & Wine Making - Zeeland, MI - Welcome | Facebook --> click on "Shop Now") because they sell complete crowns.

I wonder if those would be pretty easy to get started the first year.

mrgstiffler - that certainly is my hope.

i'm now trying to decide between Great Lakes and Northwest Hops - Buy Dried Whole Hops and Hop Rhizomes Here! An Online Beer Hop Store with hop rhizomes and whole dried hops for sale. Brew your own beer with beer roots which sells potted plants. NWH is a tad cheaper, but slightly smaller selection. not sure if shipping cost is going to even things out, i'll look into it tomorrow.

You won't be disappointed with great lakes... Me and a buddy bought 50 crowns (5 varities) for $460. Can't wait to see what they produce in the summer!
