Building a time machine is damn near impossible, yes.
Growing one on the other hand...

TheRealMe approaches, with yet another attempt at making a flanball. He has overheard most of the conversation.
"Doctor SimonWho, are you proposing taking a cutting off of your blue box and sticking it in a pot or something?"

hello people of the tree. what's going on? i must have fallen asleep after all the exhaustive ski vacationing...
simonwho, if you're growing another TARDIS, can you then take the original TARDIS to the future where the baby TARDIS is full grown and have access to both? 'Cause that would be cool. And I'd like to go on a ride sometime if you don't mind?

TheRealMe seems delighted and surprised. "Mai! Welcome back! Cozen! Just the fellow I wanted to see!"
TheRealMe throws the flan-ball at Cozen, causing it to break into a million pieces, again covering the beach in tasty flan.
"Sort of like the old Spam-guns, don't you think? Except this time our ammunition is made of food!"
TheRealMe turns to SimonWho. "Oh, Doctor? I have a friend IRL who asked me about Boxing Day. Isn't that something done in that land across the pond?"

*listens intently*
So you say.......
But I've already built one.
Or found one, to be precise; but, obviously, I need to work out the bugs.
*brightens*
But yes, I would love some ice cream! What flavor?

Bobby Sue is startled by Mrs Universe, and just stares back at her for a moment. "Oh. Sorry. Most people just ignore me when I talk. Ummm... Come this way!"
Still clutching her urn, Bobby Sue leads Mrs Universe away from the others, who are beginning to discuss how time travel is relevant to Boxing Day.
When they are safely alone, Bobby Sue starts unscrewing the lid of her urn. "See, most folks think that I keep the ashes of my old lover, Jayne-clone2 in here. Really, I have those stashed under my bed."
The top of the urn pops off to reveal a lump of purplish-colored ice cream, complete with a spoon. "There's not much of this left. TheRealHim took a trip to some other dimension to get it."
Mrs Universe hazards a spoonful, expecting a grape flavor.
"This is the best ice cream ever. It never melts, it has zero calories, and it tastes like... the favorite taste of the person eating it!"

Mrs. U takes another spoonful.
"Wow...this is some fine stuff!"
She shakes her head.
"You got this from another dimension?"

Ah, boxing day in merry old England - the 26th of December. It used to be the one day a year we were allowed to beat up homeless people on the streets but in recent years that has become "inappropriate" so now instead, in the spirit of Christmas, we go out onto the streets and give the homeless, free of charge, the discarded cardboard boxes from our presents so they have fresh homes for the New Year. Such joy.
And it's a bit harder to grow a time machine than taking a cutting I'm afraid. Not very green fingered either - there's a trail of plant devastation behind me that even your most hardened rainforest slash and burner would disapprove of.
Ooo, ice cream!

Bobby Sue looks more confused, and a bit uncomfortable. "Uhhh... Well, that's what I heard. We Brides hadn't arrived yet. We came aboard Sereni-tree at the beginning of Thread 8. TheRealHim went looking across dimensions for ice cream two or three threads before that. But something followed him back from that place. A big purple thing with lots of tentacles. Wreaked the old treehouse. I guess they wanted their ice cream back."
