Sorry I can not. Interesting flowers along the nodes with a cluster
of flowers on top of the stem with strawberry-like leaves. The five
pedal deep rose-colored flowers have a nice contrast with cream color
centers. The flowers should be your key to ID, but I'd like to see
the entire plant.

When I moved in it was new construction and the builder decided to
keep the 200 native trees on the lot. To this day, I'm not sure if I
have a "hackberry tree" or not. It has grown and produces a feast for
migrating birds with loads of dark berries. I think it is a bush but
I've trimmed it to a tree.
