What kind of tree?

Recommended Posts

Recently I've started noticing a small tree or shrub sprouting beautiful dark pink blossoms, especially in the central reservation on the autoroute between Cahors and Toulouse. 

The blossom seems to be growing directly on the branches (rather than dangling at leaf level) and is most intense on closely pruned plants.

I've spotted a few in gardens as well.  I'd love to buy one, but I've no idea what it's called.

Does anyone have any idea what it could be?

Thanks.
