Here in beautiful British Columbia where I planted dahlia tubers last March and it did look rather favourable in early April, though we still had piles of snow, we had 6" of snow over Saturday and then on April 20 morning a temperature down to -5 degrees C.
However today when I made a tour, so far it seems like only the almost spent flowers from early iris and crocuses really felt the cold. It may show up on the forsythia as there are some petals on the ground but that just might be from the snow. We'll have to see about the apricots as the buds were swelling but not by a lot.
Hopefully the star magnolia will not be affected as the buds are not much enlarged and I will have flowers like this lovely bloom from last year.
