Yes, but only if another man is arguing with you.

My Japanes Persimmon tree !! It not only made it through 100mph sustained winds, it only dropped one fruit. It's been in the ground three years and I have 13 fruits this year on this 4 1/2' tall tree. I'm totally enthused with it.

Yes @Zigs . It's a sweet japanese persimmon but I tell the neighbors it's an astringent American persimmon, since it's planted in the front yard .Excellent @AnniekayCan you eat them?
I pruned the Bansai tree in the rain this afternoon.

What kind of tree is your Bonsai ? I've been looking for a small tree to cloud prune.

Good plan
I tell folk that all cacti are poisonous and there's no antidote for the same reason
Not sure which pine it is but I just noticed a tiny pine seedling coming up in the pot with blue needles so it must be a seed off one of our pines. The bonsai one hasn't ever produced cones so it can't be that one.
I have an Ash tree bonsai too, I'll see if I can find a pic before all it's leaves fell off, just looks like a stick now

Persimmon bread is outstanding:
It takes a few years, but the Japanese persimmon is a big producer as it matures.

Is the first picture asparagus fern? I envy you the Salvia - is that one called black & blue, or amistad?
I had one similar, but lost it in the frost, it's just not hardy enough to survive our colder winters.

And despite the tattered leaves of the elephant ears, the mist flowers are very happy as am I.
