I planted 6 varieties of hops rhyzomes awhile back. Since then we have had wildly variable weather here in Montana, from 70 degree days to snow, sleet, rain, hail, etc. Our annual mother's day storm blew in yesterday with a mix of every imaginable kind of weather...... and of course I was working outdoors. Pelted with "tapioca" sleet, rain, snow, even hail, interspersed with periods of sunshine, and enough wind to chill you to the bone, I came home to see one of my pet hops poking it's head out of the ground........ A couple of leaves of Northern Brewer courageously poking out of the ground, wondering what it was like outside the cold cold ground. These things are tough with a capital T!!
