my guess is Salt Cedar , Tamarix ramosissima or relative. It is a beauty BUT it is a invasive in desert riparian areas. You might want to check Arizona's invasive list.

KILL IT!

Salt cedar will take over your yard with a weedy mess of sticks.

Low forking and density could be that of a cultivar or it could just as well be an unnamed seedling variant. Many cultivars begin as seedling variants, these do not become named cultivars unless somebody makes them into one.

Interiorinspirations, you are right, your plant is Magnolia figo aka Banana Shrub or Port Wine Shrub. It is not Magnolia soulangeana (sp) which is a deciduous Spring bloomer and bears little resemblance to your tree.

Not dogwood. It is a bit out of focus and I can’t see how the leaves come off the stem, but perhaps Malus which includes apples and crab apples.
