I live in Iowa %26amp; keep seeing this really neat ornamental tree that many of the houses here have planted for landscaping purposes. However, all of my searches to local nurseries and on the internet have turned up fruitless. It looks like some sort of weeping tree, and it has green leaves when it is spring. Everyone that has one has called it an "umbrella tree," but that is not the correct name for it. I did find a picture on the internet of what one looks like without the leaves at

They only grow about 5 - 6 ft. tall at maturity I think. Anyone have any ideas?
I need help identifying an ornamental tree for landscaping?
It looks like a 'Chaparral' Mulberry (Morus alba 'Chaparral') to me. Mine is about 10 feet tall, but is very old.....
Reply:I don't know what type of tree that is, but here is a link for a site to id trees.

Reply:I'm not sure what it is, but I know my neighbors have one. We live in VA, so it must be a tree that can live here as well.
