Question Unknown Tree, Bunbury Western Austrlia

I first thought this tree was a Cherry Blossom, but since it started flowering, I’m not so sure it is, perhaps its a different variety?
The flowers come out of a berry like shell, and are very soft (they bruise easy). They almost look coral like.

Any help would be awesome!
And let me know if there is any more information / pictures I can supply.
Thanks in Advance!

Oh and I should probably add thet flowers started blooming late summer. The tree was a bit damaged soon after we moved in ( we have a puppy who like chewing! and unfortunatly the had a nibble of the trunk) so im not too sure if this is the reqular time, or if it was 'a late bloomer' because it was recovering.

Sure looks like a Crepe Myrtle to me. Quite a few types, some people spell it with an a.

Very pretty and popular here.
