 15/ Baobab, consistent perennial, does get bugs indoors. 

My plants are still young, so they’re not heavy producers. The plants will get aphids when you bring them inside in winter. I manage these by unleashing hordes of ladybugs into the sunroom where they are overwintering.

The tree doesn’t produce fruit until it’s at least 15 years old, so I am only using the leaves for now. 
 @adfbf87b I didn’t know baobab leaves were edible.
