The upright one - P. amanagowa is usually good though, if the site/conditions are suitable. There are various weeping varieties too, depending on just how big a space you have

Do you mean 3-4 metres for the tree height? If it's against a wall, most won't be happy - they'd need room to spread.
P. amanagowa is about the only one that is narrower, but it eventually gets bigger than 3 or 4 metres, and would need enough room to thrive, so you couldn't plant it right against the wall - it would still need some room for the root system to establish properly. If it was a low wall, and you were buying something whose crown would already be higher than the wall, that would be easier for planting a bit closer, but it depends what's on the other side of the wall too.

You could try a cotoneaster or pyracantha to grow against a wall . Not agree exactly but they can get quite tall .But you won’t get a cherry blossom to grow against or near a wall
It would still need enough room at the base to thrive though, so it couldn't really be right against the wall, even with the upright one. You'd need to plant it a couple of feet away, and it would need good ground prep and aftercare. The alternatively, you could get a specimen that's already at that sort of size, to give clearance vertically, but it's going to be very, very expensive, and you'd need to have the ability to get it established.

the wall is 6' high so i would like ,if possible, a tree to start flowering above 6'
