Victory Hops

[AndrewQLD]

Well here is the living proof, my Victory hops have started to flower this year (2nd season). It will only be a small crop but it just shows even this far from Vic you can get results.

I think I could organise a Victory and a POR if you would like Jeff . I think they would grow pretty well in your area so long as you have a spot with plenty of daylight. I"ll take some cuttings and see if I can get them to strike and let you know.

Cheers

Andrew, I'm inspired - didn't think you would get a flower that far north. Would love a cutting if you have a strike success & can spare one - no probs if you can't...

cheers Ross

The actual name of the hops is Victoria, the title of the thread was a play on words :huh: .

"A super alpha, high-yielding triploid variety. Grown in all Australian production areas since the early 1990s. About 750-800 tonnes of Victoria are produced. Because of its high alpha yields, Victoria can be sold at prices which achieve very economical bittering."

Obviously a little too subtle for me :blink:

"Because of its high alpha yields, Victoria can be sold at prices which achieve very economical bittering."

They sure know how to make it sound delicious!
