Yes I have two of them. One has already bloomed, and the other one is getting ready. You can keep them if you are willing to offer the type of protection they need...

I agree with JudyB and every one here that it is very exciting to follow the ume blooming day by day.
The first one started opening this afternoon. It is right in the base of the lowest branch!

This evening.
I love to see the only flower on the old wood. It is quite contrastive! It reminds me this famous poem "Cáo tật thị chúng" ( 告疾示眾) of Mãn Giác thiền sư!

Thanks JudyB. I think the life experience changed the way I look at the objects around me! I think you and others will do the same. I can sit with the hot tea next to me for an hour to admire the beauty of ume flowers!

It is still cold here! I don't understand why this bee came out alone. He might have slept all summer long and now just wake up with empty stomach!
