    Might be a cherry blossom, but I would guess one of the many cultivars of double flowering crabapple (Malus) for the second one. A picture of the bark of the trunk might make it easier to discern whether it is cherry or crabapple. Both have a lot of different cultivars. In any case, it must be a great sight when it is in bloom. Harry

    In addition to Micheal F's response, it sounds like it is a weeping variety, perhaps Pinus strobus pendula
