Hops

No, I'm not growing a large crop of hops! But I really like the plant, as it grows well and fast and both leaves and seedpods are attractive. Hops are also a nod to my grandparents in the Welsh border country, who used to go hop-picking (way back when).

Nicely composed with a strong diagonal and well framed. V

Very nice Christine. There is a hops vine growing at my workplace. I love the overlapping brackets on the fruit. I sometimes use them in flower arrangements. This year the earwigs chewed them all to pieces! V

COOL! I've never seen this plant before.

I never even knew what hops look like. So this is what beer is made from. Great capture and tradition. V.
