What is this little tree?

Santiago,
Chile 
Hi there
I am from Chile, Southamerica. I Live in Santiago, our climate is mediterranean, it goes from -2 to 34 C°. Its winter now and I found this plant blooming and want to know what it is. It´s 3-4 meters high, has 2 branches. Blooms in the sun behind a wall that faces north ( in this hemisphere north is full sun in winter ). Didn´t see the trunk, it was behind the wall. By now we have an unusual winter with temperatures between 1 and 25C°. Thank you for your help. Erika
