Beautiful Mystery Tree




Help me figure out what kind of tree this is! When Sam and I were at this park by LDS Hospital, I saw several of these gorgeous blooming trees. I want to say they are dogwoods or magnolia trees, but I didn't think they could grow in Utah's climate.

They are not dogwoods or magnolia trees unless a different version than the ones in Louisiana. The dogwoods have smaller flowers and magnolia trees are quite big with all white flowers.

We had these in Redmond, and they are a variety of magnolia--I think it's a tulip magnolia. I was surprised to see them in Utah!
