Shohin Yamadori Hawthorn

I am looking forward to developing this little piece of yamadori material into a bonsai. For such a small tree, it displays great age and character. I can honestly say I don't think I have ever seen such a small Crataegus with bark this good! It also has tiny leaves despite being generously fed and watered.
