About Rooted Rhizomes:
Certified Organic Rooted Rhizomes are two-year hop plants organically grown without the use of pesticides, fungicides or herbicides. They have produced crowns full of buds ready to produce healthy bines plus vigorous root systems. The standard rhizome cutting is the typical way to start a new hops plant but it doesn't have a crown and a root system, that is created the second year. These Organically Grown Rooted Rhizomes give you a great head start towards harvesting that crop of hop cones you'll be looking forward to.
Substitutes: Hallertaur, Pride of Ringwood. Can be hard to find.
Used For: Porters, Ales, ESBs, German Lagers.
