Not really looking for information about my city specifically but I was looking at the rhizome page on HopsDirect and several varietals have descriptions like:

"grow well in most climates, just not wet, coastal locations."

"This variety grows best in warm, dry, sunny locations."

"This variety likes to grow in cooler or coastal climates."

Are there any resources out there that specify climates each variety prefers? I haven't seen this mentioned on any of the other sites that sell rhizomes and many sell rhizomes that HopsDirect doesn't carry.
 
That does help, thanks. I'm just curious since I live in a temperate rainforest area which ones are better suited for wet/damp, cooler, coastal climates.
Still a little cold here at night but I'm thinking about trying a few varieties out.

Anyone else?
 
due to your humidity problem I'd stick to something with a good downy mildew resistance.
