Q9 has a new hint \o/ ... if that doesn't help I really don't know what will :P
Ok, and now a general hint I planned to give today ... well, more a general "foreign language puzzling trick": If you know a specific name for something in your native language, but have no idea what it is in English, try "Wikipedia translation"! ... just go to your native language Wikipedia article and click "English" on the lower left. Tada!

Got all of them except #4, #9 and #10. I do know all of them, but I can't get the proper English names for them.
EDIT: got #10, I did get the name of the plant before, but not the fruit.
EDIT 2: I misidentified #9, now I got it right. The only one I'm missing is #4, but the hint I see fits my previous guesses, so if I have that wrong, I have no idea why.

Bump for in progress. Only got 4 on my own for now even if 2 other seemed very familiar but it wasn't the correct anwser :( I was almost right or had a typo. Anyway, only 2 to go but i'll have to wait for hints. I'm crazy curious bout 10 because it looks exactly like another fruit but ITH told me it's not that.
Will keep trying

I don't know the English names for most of those >.< (and for some I don't think the name I know is the correct one even in German. And some I just don't recognize at all ...)
But thanks for EITS <3
Oh, and congrats for becoming an ex-leech, I guess? ^^

Well ... that was just how I felt about myself, I wouldn't want to judge anyone. In the end, everyone decides that for themselves, right? ... and I fear if I said anything more I might start a philosophical debate, and maybe this is not a good place for that. :)

Not to accuse anyone of anything, just to let's say raise awareness of the actions that this individual has or might've made.
I would advise creator of this puzzle or honestly anyone to look into this discussion as fellow members of SG have come up with some undeniable evidence.

Solution
I'm pleasantly surprised that someone actually asked for this ... here are the solutions to the ITH. When the puzzle ended, there 2334 guess by 167 players; 27 solved the puzzle. (Adding this summary here because posting the solution makes the stats on the ITH page pretty much worthless.)
Puzzle
No, this is not a Billie Holiday puzzle. It's literally about fruits. Since many of you liked my leaves puzzle, I decided to have a spring/summer version of this :)
Just like last time, I took the pictures myself, so don't waste your time googling ... unless you like Google to helpfully guess "plant" and show you lots of random leaf stuff. (Here, have a free hint: All the pictures show plants. One picture has a bonus phone booth. Google does not recognize the phone booth.)
Difficulty depends on "climate of origin" (sorry) ... it should range from "very easy" to "hard if you have never seen the trees, but very much solvable once the ITH hints show up". I'll try to adjust the hints if needed, so ... feedback would be appreciated! (And I already thought of some more hints, but let's see how well you do without ;)
So without further ado, here's the puzzle. And don't forget the mood music :)
Usual rules apply. Don't share any solutions, blah blah.
Giveaways: 8 bundled level 1+ (3x Tiny Bridge: Ratventure, Outland, Shadowrun Returns, Gods Will Be Watching, How to Survive, How to Survive: Third Person Standalone), 1 unbundled level 3+ (Submerged)
End time: June 15, 19:00 CEST (UCT+2)
Something else: I had planned to do this puzzle for some time; it was more "waiting for the right time of year" than "waiting for an occasion". That said, I still feel that I have a small reason to celebrate ... see the image below. I don't want any pats on the back for that or anything, that would somehow feel inappropriate. It's more like ... Just wanted to share this because I'm happy that I'm finally back from "terrible leech" to "decent human being". ... yay? :)
