Looks like Willingham Nurseries is up for sale if anyone is interested!
I placed a pre-order with them for some Cascade plants this year, but they couldnt fulfill the order. Got this link in an email from them yesterday:

Good news iv plans for next summer .might be an idea to have our own gene bank , ie a list of who is growing what hops , and can send out plants/rhyzomes to others .

[Leann ull]

That's a great idea as there is always lots of back and forth but no real co-ordination!

I've yet to have a beer I really enjoyed that was made from Irish Hops, there I've said it, CH runs dodging glasses

i know iv asked before i think ... but what are the most sucessful or suited to our climat ? im sure fuggles were grown in kilkenny

[johnrm]

I think they will all grow, but the resulting cones may have different profile than the same hop grown in a different climate.
