I have a small garden wall about 2ft high between myself and my neighbor
I would like to plant a flowering tree by it. One that has upward branches so as not to over power their garden also don't want it to get to tall

    How tall and how wide would you like the tree when it is mature?
    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

    Approx 10/15foot high with the width being at the top of the tree

    Some of the flowering cherries have suitable habits, but may eventually grow too large for you.  Have a look at these: Prunus 'Snow Goose' , Prunus 'Spire', Prunus 'Pandora', Prunus 'Beni-yutaka'
