Golden Hop

I had one Dawn , I had to take it out , it spread it,s babies all over the garden ,and i,m still pulling some out ...lol...

Aww, that's a shame Amy but you can have too much of some things. Mine seeds too but I dont mind. Covers the side of the garage nicely anyway.

i love mine because it grows so quick over the bare fence at the back of my garden, i just cut off any tendrils that step out of place. you can eat the young shoots but havnt tried that yet!

Really Mageth, didnt know that. I'll let you try it first, lol. Its the bright yellow colour that I like and doesnt take any looking after. Nice when the hops appear too :)

Havent tried eating them but been known to drink a few ..ideal for covering things Dawn and so much nicer than Russian vine ..

Very witty BB. We live near to Burton on Trent - the home of Bass Brewers (well re-named Coors now) - some days the smell of hops can be quite strong in town - enough to put you off beer for life (maybe)!

Having lived in York Dawn the City used to smell of chocolate and sugar beet on certain days .. would have to be a pretty bad smell to put me off for life but if they now brewing that lager type brew instead of real beer it might just do it ...

Ha ha BB. A posh village a few miles from here has a chicken farm at one end and a sewage farm at the other - no need to say what it smells like there, lol. I believe the Terry's factory is in York - Mmmm chocolate orange - I wouldnt mind wiffing that :)
