It's just come into flower in a local park. Some sort of cherry maybe?

I think that one is Prunus Awanui and it is a lovely tree.

Great, thanks so much.

Would now be a good time to plant one or are they best left until autumn/winter?

Winter is generally regarded as the best time but with containered plants any time is OK as long as they get the proper prep beforehand and watered during the summer.
