Flowering trees

Jun 18, 2009 22:02

I need a tree for the purposes of my story.  I thought I had a perfect one, but it turns out that it didn't meet one of the criteria I had for it.  The tree must have the following properties:
  • A relatively short height, around eight feet tall
  • Pink flowers, preferably on the small side
  • A fairly noticeable sweet fragrance
  • Flowers that bloom in early spring
  • Presence in the American midwest, as well as some Appalachia
Any suggestions, botanists, horticulturalists, etc?

I've tried searching google...and my search is too generic for wikipedia. 
Thanks!
