    From my research a Leopard Tree does not suffer from many pests or disease.
    The do prefer a hot and dry summer and cool temperatures and wet conditions could cause stress; in turn it could drop leaves.
    Your tree should recover with time.

    Yes, I do believe that it would benefit from a pruning. This can help rejuvenate the tree. This article will give you more information on the care of these: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/trees/leopard-tree/leopard-tree-care.htm

    It is quite possible that it is a Leopard Tree, but unfortunately your photo did not come through. I won't be able to ID it.

    I can offer you some information on their care, however. This article will help: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/trees/leopard-tree/leopard-tree-care.htm

    Probably not for long. Besides being a large tree, they have strong, invasive roots. However, with root pruning you should be able to sustain it for a time in a pot. You can always move it out in a couple of years. It may not bloom in pot culture, I've read. It is also a candidate for bonsai.

    Our website article too says the roots are invasive but I would go with what your local experts are saying. They are more familiar with its growing habits in your area.
