It might be to late in the year to get started, check for rhizomes they 
where taking orders back in the late summer.

For what it's worth. I grew planted hops one year and had the vines
going rather well. They were about 8 feet long or so, climbing on
clothes line. Until the summer heat hit, and burnt them up. My problem
was, that I didn't have a part of the yard to plant them in that had a
good portion of the day in the shade.


You'll need to find a place to plant them that gets some sunlight during
a portion of the day, but in the heat of the day gets shade. Also,
watering daily during the hot months will be a must, sometimes twice daily.

Just my two cents, good luck.

I’m interested in the answer as well. For the price of the rhizomes I
was thinking of giving it a try.
