    Almost looks like flowering currant but it's too small/blurry for my eyes to be sure.

      Neither the stems (colour & structure) nor the flowers look right for that.

      Perhaps a Quince/Japonica ? quince japonica - Google Search but the flowers appear to be very much at the pink end of the scale.

      This is my Almond blossom if it helps ... the flowers come before the leaves ...

        Eeeck! Hope it doesn't look like a Prune sp !
        Your 2nd pic is just fine.
        I will not be able to help further even with magnificent pics...I have made best suggestions that I can.
        Enjoy your tree but don't expect any fruit.
        Double flowers tend not to be fertile...ie no fruit!
