    Oxydendrum arboreum would be my suggestion, AKA "Sour wood"

    I see that you have been looking at an Oxydendrum arboreum on the internet. Have you had any luck in finding a source for this tree?

    Please note that I live in Poland, so it's not likely we'd find a source suiting both of us.
    But, I can recommend a fine link for anyone intrested in our sourwood (sorrel tree). Check it out.

    We have this little fellow growing here in Warsaw Botanical Garden, but it's well hidden and I haven't managed to locate it yet.
