Default tree id please

I was at a zoo in Oregon recently and saw a tree that I want to know

the link doesn't work, it had soft, fuzzy pink flower poofs all over
it (although the ones in the pic are starting to fade and loose color)
and the leaves were sets of lots of little leaves coming from the
middle stem.

Thanks for the help. *Once I know what it is I'd like to find out if
it'll grow in my yard so need the id .


Thank you all... yep, that's the tree. After looking online a little,
I see it may not be the tree of my dreams. Sounds somewhat invasive
and not long lived. I'm looking for one more tree for my South
Seattle yard and I think I'll keep looking. It sure was pretty,
though, at the zoo.
