Would any one growing in the Southwest US know of a plant source for native H.L. neo mexicanus plants? I have found only one source in New Mexico, but he believes the wild plants he has collected over the past 10 years are patentable (but has no money to do it or enforce it). Being that they are native plants, I gotta believe more than one person has collected some of these wild hops. They come from a different gene pool than brewer's hops and are adapted to dry alkaline soils - something that would be useful to breeding hop varieties that would do well in southern states. Anybody?
