Butterfly Garden

hop vines

18 years ago

I recieved my hop vine seeds yesterday(ordered June 6,) They have directions saying to plant and keep them warm for three weeks and then put them in the refrigerator for 6 to 8 weeks. I am not sure what to do. This is August and true we do not really get a hard freeze down south for several more months...But should I follow those directions?

When would you be planting them out? I can't really say since I'm in a completely different zone. I started mine in January and planted out late May/early June. I did follow the protocol--can't remember if I kept them warm first, but I do remember the cold stratification bit.

They germinated well and transplanted easily. Mine are now beginning to climb up the trellises.
