Nature Hills offers plants in two main formats:
- Container Plants: Grown in pots with soil, sized by container volume and plant age

Growing Zones 5-8
Get brewing with the tasty Teamaker Hops Vine (Humulus lupulus 'Teamaker') is an improved variety of the ornamental vine and brewery-favorite ingredient, displaying virtually no bitterness! Gorgeous toothy foliage and unique dangling bracts are lovely to behold!
High in beta acids and low in alpha acids so your beer won't be bitter. Called Teamaker because of its strong antibiotic properties have been used in herbal teas, as alternative antibiotics mixed into chicken and livestock feed, and as a bacterial inhibitor in the processing of sugar, and make a delicious non-bitter iced tea and beer that picks up on this Hops floral/herbal aroma.
Hops Vines are technically Bines because they do not grab onto anything with suckers, choosing instead to climb by wrapping and entwining themselves to grow upwards, binding themselves instead of sticking. Low-maintenance and hardy throughout USDA growing zones 5-8, Teamaker is a deciduous vine that grows 15-20 feet tall and only 3-5 feet wide at maturity.
Planting and Application:
Teamaker is not just for brewing beer with low bitterness or making delicious teas, it's also fantastic for ornamental use in the garden! The lovely chartreuse green foliage and lime green layered flowers and their bracts add color, height, and interest to gardens with carefree ease. Add shade to pergolas and arbors, privacy to lattice and fencing or just as a specimen climbing up an obelisk in the garden for a conversation piece! Highly ornamental climbing on trellises, up a chimney, stair railing, or over a balcony for shade.
Train onto an arbor or support to easily grow and harvest the Hops flowers for beer making or tea, and any number of other medicinal uses. Add a row on a fence to block an unsightly view or as screening without worry that deer may come munching. Best in groupings and en masse for pollination purposes since the plants are either male or female. Planting in multiples will ensure pollination and higher yields.

#ProPlantTips for Care:
Hops Bines flower/fruit best in a full sun location in well-drained soil. Provide moderate, consistent moisture and a mulched bed in hot/dry climates. Harvest mid-August to mid-September and afterward, prune the plant to the ground in fall. Next spring, all new sprouts develop from the roots (rhizomes) each year! Male and female plants need to be planted in groupings to ensure pollination.
