Default Hops?

I love home brewing beer, but I always use the sealed hop pellets. This year I ordered some hop rhizomes and was wondering if anybody knows anyone that has ever grown hops in the area. Home grown whole leaf hops have got to taste great. Just seeing if anyone has experience with this.

i have no idea if its doable or not in our climate.. but i do remember seeing the hops fields in germany.. the plants themselves were HUGE... and they had them on some type of suspension / racks to grow... like 20-30 ft in the air...
