The first passionfruit flower opened! This is one of @massive-pop's plants that was entrusted under my care.

There's going to be a lot of these pretty flowers pretty soon.

My hops kept growing. Hops is supposed to stop its vertical growth after the solstice but I guess no one bothered to let this plant know about that.

It was trying to get inside the house, heh.

I wanted to lower the whole vine and have it grow diagonally to give it another 1-2 metres but ... it snapped in my hand. So I guess that the problem is solved now; no more vertical growth. Let's see if this will force lateral growth or if I've ruined this plant. It should be just fine.

My older fig recently got a lot of new growth. I'm leaving it do its thing for now, in the autumn there's going to be some heavy pruning and training of the branches.

And this is a olive plant. It was quite small when I got it so I haven't pruned it at all. In the autumn I'm going to cut all but 1 or 2 stems to try to give it a bit more of a tree look and less of a bush. It put out a lot of flowers; I don't think that it's going to fruit at all but you never know.

Thanks!
