    I think it's a cherry tree. It is absolutely beautiful, bee bum or not!

    Definitely not a dogwood, maybe cherry or crabapple. It'll be interesting to see what fruit it bears in a few months!

    I think it's a flowering cherry from looking at the smooth bark. It may or may not have fruit.

    It's a flowering crab. We've got a few in our back yard too, but they aren't anywhere near ready to bloom yet! You will get tiny little crab apples that keep the Robins happy all winter long.

    I have a few pics of ours for comparison, but they must be on my home computer. If I remember tonight, I'll post them for you.

    They are beautiful, but don't last long so enjoy!

    My grandma had one and it was absolutely gorgeous! Though I can't remember what it was called

    Hm, it looks more like a cherry tree to me - the crabapple trees seem to be more whiteish in the center, atleast from what I've seen?? Also, it seems Crabapple trees have more foliage - MOFF's doesn't look like it has much? Here's a few pics to show what I'm talking about.

    See what I mean? It really could be either one.. they look so much alike!

    To me, it looks like a cherry tree - also judging from the branches, but then, I don't know what a crap tree looks like.

    Hope it bears fruit - enough to feed Mario.

    I wonder if you posted what the entire tree looks like, if that wouldn't help... but, here are a couple links to maybe compare some of the other aspects of the tree that maybe you would know...

    and, a few types of cherry tree...

    Could be Prunus cerasifera nigra, a kind of plum.
