I belive that is a plum tree from china, if it is umbrella shaped thats what it is.

Reply:It could even be a Dogwood tree, but don't quote me on this one!
Reply:Sounds like a "bing cherry" tree to me....these fruits are delicious and much larger than a regular size cherry~ They are an expensive fruit too!
Reply:There is a type of yellow cherries, which is absolutely delicious. We had one of these in our orchard when I grew up. There is also a small type of apricot that looks like that.
