Well I had to dig it up today. They are going to clear the area very soon. Looking further it appears they cut back the main stem at some point. I cut it back further because it was mangled. But there is new growth coming from that down at the root base.

I potted it up with some really nice soil I mixed up and watered it really well. I have it in a protected area with mostly shade. I will move it into the garage on nights where it is going to dip below 40.

If it does not survive no loss out of my pocket. It was going to get clear cut if I left it.
