Default I am guilty of mimosa killing

I bought a very nice Mimosa plant by mail order,as I have wanted one for years. It arrived in a healthy condition, about 18/20 inches tall. It was put into a 12 in pot. with a mix of one third soil, sharp sand,and peat. I placed it in a full sun, south facing fence,and awaited results, and waited, and waited, and waited, and now it has turned into compost, over a period of three years.

Over these years it has been fed with, prostregen,and Miracle Gro. Did this cause it's demise I ask myself?

I would like to try again. Can anybody help me to master the art of raising a Mimosa to a beautiful flowering plant of which I can be proud of. I would apprecaite any help, please
