Does anyone know why this is happening? It's in a 5 gallon pot right now and is small maybe 2ft tall. I have it in half sun and half shade, gets the morning sun. Can someone help? Thanks in advance!

It is possible that your mimosa has vascular wilt, a fungal infection caused by Fusarium...

You're trying to grow a mimosa tree in FL on purpose?
