What to expect? Transplanted mature tree 2 years ago

Two years ago we moved a 10 foot tall, probably 30+ years old, camellia japonica tree to our yard (it was earmarked for the landfill anyway...). We didn't know what to expect but thought it was worth the potential risk to acquire such a mature specimin. Unfortunately all the leaves slowly dried up and fell off and we ended up just cutting it down because it looked so awful.

Since then it has grown 3-5 small branches from the stump area and has two flower buds this year. I wanted to know what I might expect the future growth rate to be since it is/was a mature tree.

Thanks,

Melanie
