Default Advice on hops

Jim,
where did you get the hop?
I have seen them growing wild in hedgerows but not in garden centres.
Cheers

Last year I put in a hop which grew well with 2 stems (bines ?)
During winter I cut this right back as per the instructions and this year

it
has started to sprout but with at least eight stems. Do I allow all 8 of
these to grow or should I cut back the surplus and leave the 2 healthiest

to
grow.
It's for decorative purposes only, to cover a pergoda I don't use the hops
for brewing so not interested in what they taste like

Thanks
Jim
