Flower School: Hops


Hops have a near and dear place in my heart.  
My husband is a brewer at a local craft brewery in Seattle  
and the smell of hops will always remind me of my husband coming home 
from work in our first year of marriage. 
We also incorporated hops into our own wedding.  

Hop season in Washington starts in mid-August and goes through September.  
Hops grow on vines best in moist climates.  
Their prime harvest is at the end of summer here in Washington.  
You can learn more about hops here.

Below are some of my favorite hop ideas (aside from beer).

This gorgeous hop arch.  So romantic!

I would love to find some hop vines and make this incredible wreath.


This and This are gorgeous bouquets with hops
