Mason, I suggest you get a couple of photos, otherwise it could be any number of Prunus species. Try and get a closeup of the flower.

Hi masonC, rural nsw your from.Where, north, south,east or west. :?: Sounds nice this tree.Instead of digging it up, if thats what your thinking to do.The first thing i would do is do an aerial graft. It can be done any time of the year, now is good.
It wont take long to root up, six weeks from yo to wo.This way you could get many trees from the one plant, theres bound to be a lot of nice specimens on that tree. if you dont know the procedure in A/L go to the progress page and see how its done. Dead easy mate, you wont look back.Promise! good luck & we'll look forward to seeing some progress pictures also.Cheers! :D
