I have a fruit tree in my back yard. I don’t want it to get too attached to the soil, though, so I don’t give it any water or fertilizer. Instead of just pruning it, I cut off all its branches. Also, I let the weeds grow around it.  Then when the weeds take over and the tree shrivels up and dies, I call that “fruit”.

I have a fruit tree in my back yard. Last year it dropped some fruit on the ground, and I left it there. This year, a young sapling has grown up next to my fruit tree. I watered it once. I am not sure if it is a good tree or not, though, so when I go to water my fruit tree, I make sure not to get any on the sapling. When I fertilize my fruit tree, I make sure that none of the fertilizer gets on the sapling. I even built a little shed over the sapling so that no rain or sunshine would get on it. I want to see if it bears any fruit before I tend it. It did grow a flower once, but it’s just a sapling, so it couldn’t have been a real flower. So I plucked it off.

And as soon as it can correctly explain the process of photosynthesis to me, I will tend it.

I have a fruit tree in my back yard. I hired a gardener to take care of my fruit tree. Later, I found out he was only watering my fruit tree twice a year. When I asked him why, he said, “If I watered it any more than that, it wouldn’t seem as special.” I don’t want my fruit tree to take the water for granted.

I saw the craziest thing the other day. I have a fruit tree in my back yard. You will not believe what I saw happen. I saw one branch of my fruit tree take a set of pruning shears, and cut itself off my fruit tree. Then (it gets wilder!) I saw another branch from another tree cut itself off, walk over to my fruit tree, and graft itself in. Wow! It’s a good thing, too, because I wanted that very thing to happen. I just didn’t feel right about doing it myself.
