I checked you earlier post and now realize that the So jujube would need to be pruned to fit your specifications. Also, they send up suckers and may effect your lawns appearance. I will make some other suggestions instead.
I am zone 9 and I have kept a "snow fountain weeping cherry" for a few years. People actually stop on the street and stare at it when it flowers in the spring. It requires little maintainance and is insanely beautiful. It is listed at zone 8 but I didnt have any problems with the heat last year. You could check it out and see if it fits the bill. It does produce edible fruit but they are very tiny cherries.
