I got this tree about 8 to 9 years ago from The National Arbor Day Foundation--one of their 10 trees for $10. Of course they were just 2 foot sticks when I got them but I still have 3 growing. Anyway, This has been growing slowly and steadily--it's about 6' tall now. I was quite surprised to see it flowering this spring (it has not in the past). The flowers are quite sweet smelling and look a lot like apple blossoms to me (though I doubt seriously it's a fruit tree).

Would appreciate it if anyone could ID this tree for me.

Are you kidding? What is a happy apple tree? I come up with nothing on a Google search.

A happy apple is an apple tree that appears to be thriving why (not to be confused with unhappy, Crappy Apple trees)
