Ummm..How long is a piece of string ? Its up to you the brewer ?...Do you like Euro, American, English hops ???
You can play around with hops on kits heaps.
Off the Cascade Website... for example

Summer Blonde
10gm Cascade at 20 min
10gm Saaz at flameout

+1 on the Saaz

I've only used the Spicy Ghost once with success (the second one got infected so no reflection on the kit). It came out OK but needs some extra hops and Saaz would probably suit it best. Maybe with a bit of wheat malt added in.

Saaz would have been my suggestion as well.
Prost and happy brewing!
