NEVER BE IMPATIENT AS I WAS...

... becouse impatience kills.
I experienced this firsthand. :'''-(


Tree: Plum - Prunus domestica subsp. syriaca var. cerea (Borkh.) Janch.
Pot: Ceramic flowerpot.
Height:  45 cm.
Age: Unknown.

I found this small tree near my block. I've got permission to dig it out.


But I made all possible mistakes. 
I was impatient, the root ball was too small and ...





 ... it doesn't matter because the tree is now dead. 
I tried rescue this poor plant but it was too late.





Now I have good material for next tanuki. 
I will not waste this "tree" this time. 


And remember impatience kills bonsai.
