Default Help me figure out what's going on with this mandarin tree?

Hey y'all, I have a potted Seto Satsuma mandarin tree that was purchased and potted last Spring and has never flowered or fruited. In the past couple of weeks, the leaves all started turning yellow and brown and falling off, I thought I'd overwatered it (the pot is self-watering but sometimes I water from the top out of laziness). Now, it's still got yellow dead leaves and branches on it, but it's putting off lots and lots of leaf buds on the branches and suckers at the base of the trunk. Is this normal behavior? Should I worry about it or just let it do its thing? Pictures are in my thread in the photo gallery section, the last three pictures I posted. Thanks in advance.
