Does this sentence sound natural?

[Nieves and Co]

Hello all;

So earlier I was thinking about sakura trees and, due to reference of some similar sentence structures I've drawn this up:
さくらはかわいいツリーです, which I translated from Sakura (Cherry Blossom) is a cute tree.
So on to the question, does this translation sound natural where it said by a native?

Thanks in advance!

Why do you use ツリー instead of 木?

 

[Nieves and Co]

Ah, see I knew there was something wrong there.
So, 木 (ki) = the correct translation of tree, the resulting sentence would be さくらはかわいい木です?

 

[Toritoribe]

You can also say さくらの木はかわいいです.

So the new ugly broadcast tower in Tokyo should be 空木?

There's no problem about スカイツリー or クリスマスツリー, but I can't accept 桜ツリー.
BTW, I read it からき i.e. "empty tree" when I saw 空木.

I have trouble with a ツリー without 枝. I would have named it 目障り塔 or 目の毒タワー or スカイライン・キラー
