Default a shrub/tree for a new baby

I am going to see my new grandchild in Aberdeen next week. I am
thinking of buying a rose tree or something that we can plant to mark
her birth. Have you any suggestions but not too outlandish, as I
only have access to quite ordinary garden centres. What grows in
Aberdeen, climbing roses? magnolias?
dwarf flowering cherries? what do you think?

Climbing roses would be fine - magnolia's are a bit too frost tender for
here, though. Cockers Roses (Aberdeen) have a wonderful stock, locally grown
and available via the net / phone / etc
