    Ok, not really a thread on growing hops (though I do plan to get that started sometime), but I was looking to see if there were folks that were growing hops that may be getting flowers early (June). I'll be getting married this June in southwest Ohio and I was looking to incorporate fresh hops into the boutonneires of myself and my groomsmen (probably 3-5 cones per). Unfortunately, unlike last year, hop flowers aren't coming in super early, so I don't believe I'll be able to get some locally.

    Are there any homebrewers in the south that are growing hops that would be getting them in early and may be willing to ship 'em north?

    I usually have them by now but for some reason my plants are still just a couple of feet tall and obviously no signs of cones yet.
