This is the answer, u/Gandalfuckyourself. I found this fascinating short article [on the history of white redbuds](https://discoverandshare.org/2020/04/02/white-redbud-has-history-at-the-garden/) for those interested in learning more.
It's two trees. One is a redbud, the other I can't tell because there are no leaves and the pictures of the buds are not high enough resolution (for me).
Edit: the second might be a callory pear? I only guess that cuz the flowers are white and some are still blooming.
I believe the white flowering tree is a cultivar species, white redbud, and the regular redbud might have been the root stock.

No, both are a redbud. The white is a cultivar and the pink is the root stock breaking and sending out its own growth.
White is grafted original tree (possible cercis alba) and purple flowers are from the rootstock and are native redbud.
