Topic tags/keywords: question

I have seen several of these trees around East Central U.S. (this one was in Western North Carolina at the rest area/welcome center).

I really like this kind of tree and want to plant a few of them on my property.

Anybody know what kind it is?

-- Last week I finally got my $*i# together. Unfortunately, it was in my shop, so I will probably never find it again.
