Fruitless Figs

In Mark chapter eleven, Jesus is disappointed when he doesn't find figs on a leafy green fig tree.
But Jesus doesn't leave it there - says, "My no one ever eat figs from you again" and the next day this trees is found to be all shriveled up, right down to the roots.

What is going on here? Is Jesus THAT concerned about getting figs?
Isn't he being kind of harsh with this helpless tree?

What is it we are supposed to learn from this?
