My Japanese Cherry is flowering now (February), and it's leafless. The blossoms are a really nice pink.
 I didn't think Magnolias shed all of their leaves at once, ever. They don't in South Carolina, anyway.

The Redbud tree blooms in early spring. Ours has been blooming since late February and won't leaf out until sometime in April.

Oh Eileen I wish wisteria would work for you 
It's so beautiful and smells wonderful.
But it can be really invasive here

Do all fruit trees blossom before leafing out? Our apricot trees have blossoms but no leaves yet. I know apple trees get blossoms first too. I have a dwarf Dutch iris that bloomed right out of the ground without leaves or a stem. I think it is this confusing weather because the others are growing leaves and stems and haven't blossomed yet. Dooley

Well, duh, I look at the peach tree every day when I am out there and of course it has blossoms before the leaves appear. 
Looking at something everyday doesn't necessarily mean my brain in engaged at the time.

Oh Julie that's lovelyhow I wish it were growing in my garden though. I think the north winds and all the cold, damp weather stops it growing here. Never mind at least now I have a beautiful photograph to look at. Thank you.
