An antithetical xenon      Xe -> EX
has a shrub without tail   TREE -> TRE
and me                     ME

are so utmost
EXTREME

But...I'm not good at plants so I could be wrong. I can cope with "Grass" and "Tree" but I get confused in the middle ground with "Shrub" and "Bush"...
The difference between flowers and weeds is easy: A flower was the one it was easy to pull out...

Now that's sweet actually Smile | :)

Yeah that's right (in Turkish)
"Tashakkur" is basically a Persian word. Though Persian is not my mother tongue, I like using some Persian words in my convos Smile | :)

To me, Persian and Turkish languages to seem have close resemblance (with respect to both words and accent).
Not sure though.

An old friend[^] who was a self-described gardener once said a weed was anything you didn't want in the garden. I believe this did not extend to bloody pigeons and stupid moggies but I feel they fall into the same category.

I've always said a weed is something that is growing where you don't want it to.

For example I want grass in my garden, unfortunately most of it is growing in the flower beds whereas the lawn is so bald I have to let the grass grow and attempt a comb over.

Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

Kidding (maybe?)! It is a common misapprehension but there is a clear distinction. A tree is fractal, with both roots and top branching out from a single large (relatively) trunk. A shrub has a crown of stems of equal size arising from either a central or diffuse root system.

I am not a number. I am a ... no, wait!
