I've scoured the internet for anything about what I'm seeing on my plant and haven't found much. I've included a picture of it (sorry about the grow light). Looks to be a type of sap(?) coming up between the leaves of my mimosa on the top most branches. Checked for any bugs and came up with nothing. Didn't know mimosa's made sap, so am now concerned...
I can include more pictures or descriptions of the tree if needed. Just want to know if anyone's heard of anything like this.

Thanks! It's my first time with this type of bonsai and when I put "mimosa bonsai sap" in a search bar on the internet and nothing came up I got concerned. Glad to know it's normal!

It's called guttation, a lot of tropicals do this.

I read some other guttation articles perviously and they all spoke of it coming from the leaves, but figured since it was coming from the stems on my tree it was something else... Your article really helped straighten everything out. Thanks!
