They are supposed to be for "research", but they do ship. They aren't real rhizomes like we are used to seeing though. Just a little square of dirt with a small amount of rhizome material and a little shoot sticking out. None of mine survived, but I'm stupid so I probalby screwed them up.

I ordered some hops from the link yesterday.

I received an email today ...
"Our hop collection is currently unavailable for distribution due to the possible infection with a new pathogen, hop stunt Viroid. We are having our entire collection tested for this pathogen. This process may take a year or longer to accomplish. Please follow our website for updates to this process."
