I haven't seen a china berry tree in a long time but that does not look like one right there...

it could be a china berry tree by comparing the two...I thought I saw some big pods at first that is why I did't think it was a chinaberry tree.

And u might also be right, I just said chinaberry tree because it looks exactly like the one in our backyard. It has those distinctive pink flowers.

Looks like a chinaberry to me, a good test is chinaberry's have brittle branches and tend to break instead of bend.

I was around china berry trees quite a bit as a kid...I remember them more like an umbrella type tree but I believe that the neighbor down the road had one that looked similar to that one...I didn't pay much attention to it but if it was a  china berry tree it was an old one...

Thanks everyone.
Some food friends of mine have it on their farm. They are in their sixties. She was raised on the property. She said this was the first year she ever noticed it flowering. After seeing its beauty, she wanted to plant more around the farm. However, she did not know if it was grafted or just grew from seeds. She figured with the correct name, she could research it to find out.  Thank you again.

She told me she knows it has been there for at least 30 years.

Also, it should have read "fond friends" in my post above, not "food friends". Lol

We had a coondog that chewed on a China berry tree and it made her have seizures. Had no idea what was wrong with her a vet finally figured it out.

those berries make good ammo for a slingshot...and made many an arrow with the soft green limbs...just scraped the bark off and make a point on one end and notch the other...about the only kind of toys I had growing up.Grin Smiley
