And the North wind did blow...

Not sure how much blossom will be left after today's wintery weather.  Hopefully the 'not quite opened' blossom will have survived nature's onslaught but there's a fair amount of sorry looking petals blowing about this evening.  

At this rate I shall be putting my electric blanket back on the bed :(

Blossoms are scattered by the wind and the wind cares nothing, but the blossoms of the heart no wind can touch.
