It looks like an Oleander (Nerium oleander)as in the photo on this page.

Best answer: It's a desert willow.

Unless I'm mistaken, which is possible, no Oleander shrub/tree I've seen buds in that manner. Not an expert, but I have taken close pictures of the flowers for drawing projects and live in Florida, where we have them all over.

I retract my suggestion! dilaudid is clearly right that it is Chilopsis/Desert willow
