It's a tabebuia caraiba (silver trumpet tree) as someone else mentioned. The white one looks more like a crepe myrtle than an oleander but I can't be sure without seeing the trunk of the tree.

Other stunning flowering trees for Florida growers are the: Scarlet/ orange Flamboyant tree White, Pink, or Yellow Mimosa Those also sport fern like leaves like the Golden medallion tree Also there's the lovely giant and very fast growing purple flowering Princess/Queen tree, or Princess/Queen Paulownia tree. All names are proper. It grows up to 15 feet annually reaching 50 or more feet high at maturity, and has leaves more than a foot across, in the spring/early summer it blooms in large clusters of purple trumpet shaped flowers.

I think I've heard of that term, cassia, before. I'll go back and look at the truck on the purple tree to see if there's spikes. Thanks, Michael. I think I’ve heard of that term, cassia, before.

I'm going to go back to that particular tree and get a good closeup up of the bark and leaves. Also, I've got several other, and much better, pictures of yet another purple three that's everywhere right now that has fern-like leaves. Absolutely beautiful. I will get some good closeups of the bark and leaves of those too. I'll publish those on Wednesday. Maybe we can all take a look and see what they might be. Thanks for reading, Shellie.
