I have an update on this. I pruned off that dying branch after posting this thread. Well, today I went out there and dug it up to check the roots. I washed all of the potting mix out of the roots. It turns out there was two trees growing in one pot. With just a little bit of pulling they came right apart. I was always puzzled by the strange branching habit of this thing


Here is a picture of the little tree that I thought was a branch of the big one (I guess it justifies the high price I paid for it). LOL
