You can call the University of Florida extension service to speak to Master gardeners for suggestions on best flowering trees to plant here. They have online zoom sessions to ask questions now. You can also go to any good nursery around here and ask for suggestions. You need to consider how far away from your house you should safely plant the tree and how sturdy it is or how deep or shallow rooted it is as we do have hurricanes here that could cause the tree or branches to fall. I have had good luck with crepe myrtles Holly trees and weeping bottlebrush here but sadly crepe myrtles are really ugly for the eight months of the year they are not in bloom as they lose all their leaves. During this virus your best option is probably speaking to people at local nurseries. There is a good nursery on route 301 North of route 466 on the left hand side as you're driving north. Very knowledgeable people there and good quality trees. Sorry that I can't think of the name of it but I think it might have the word farms in the name. Good luck.
