Maple Tree's Answer · Hi Selma-It looks as thought the tree you have is the Yellowwood Tree (Cladrastis lutea). If you use google images you will see many pictures of this tree. If you don't feel this identification is correct let me know. A close up of the flowers and leaves would help but I believe this is the Yellowwood.
Congratulation on moving into your home. Please ask any other questions you may have while enjoying working on your new gardens.
