What kind of Tree is this? (can seeds be taken)

Hi Everyone,
Can anyone identify this tree for me so I can buy another one.
I have had it for about 10 years and its only 3ft 4 inches tall and the bees love it.

I have provided three pictures of the tree.

Thanks and much appreciated.

Also: Can I take seeds from this plant?
I know this is a silly question but will the seeds be in the very small flowers and if so when do I take them.

Sorry, don't go off site, especially not to ImageShack, since it loads ads and such that sometimes contain malware.

since those were jpg codes, all you needed to do was click the Img button here (right above where you type into), paste in the code, click the Img button again.

Sorry, I don't know your trees, but now that the pics are here, probably someone else will. Ruff, you might want to edit your title to add --with pictures. Kdodds, it wasn't image shack, it was photobucket, which I use all the time with no problems.

It has been a while but at first glance it looks like a weeping crabapple. Take a photo and prune a branch off and take it either to a garden center or cooperative extension.

The flower clusters remind me of butterfly bush but the leaves don't seem quite right. The leaves actually reminds me of something else that's on the tip of my brain....

Sorry, when I read this this morning, I'm pretty sure the links were to ImageShack. But, yeah, Photobucket, no problems. McAfee, though, routinely picks out Malware and Viruses on ImageShack. Valid or not, I'm not taking chances.

I still can't find what plant it is...

Can I take seeds from this plant?

if it makes viable seed, they'll come along sometime after the flowers. keep an eye on it.
