In answer to your question, we only use the Hops for an ornamental vine. I've had those 2 plants for about 4 yrs and by summer's end the whole arbor is green. My mom picked Hops when she was a teenager as well. I don't know about your mom, but mine HATES them now! LOL!

Laurie, don't worry, if it does snow the flowers will just be insulated from the cold. They aren't predicting snow here though just in the mountains (works for me)! The wind has been blowing like crazy, 20-30 mph with gusts to 35-40 mph. My poor hanging baskets! They're getting the brunt of most of the wind but are still hanging in there! (no pun intended) LOL!
