Hop vines in Perth?

[simo hart]

Hello fellow brewers,

I was wondering if any one knows were I can get a few different hop vines from?
I live in perth and have never tried to grow hops before and am thinking of trying. Any info or links on growing hops in perth conditions would be good, cheers!

Thanx dave, I'll msg him now and let you know how I go.

Better use the right terminology.

Hops don't grow on vines.

Grapes grow on vines; hops grow on bines.

The cascade rhizome i got from him was a good one with a few sprouts already and a root system

Head down to the Cellabrations at Carlisle carpark brew day today, there's some for sale there! And heaps of other awesome stuff!

StalkingWilbur only just saw your msg then and I worked in kewdale today....spewing! Thank you anyway.
Do these brew days happen often? How do I find out about them?

It's a once a year type thing for wa beer week. Contact Joel at Cellabrations, there might be some left over.

I keep up to date on Facebook, both on their page and the Craft Beer Enthusiasts group. A bunch of Perth beer geeks on there
