  1. Hi McBrooklyn,
    Mother Nature is actually so incredible that it made sure that buds on trees can survive very harsh winters.
    Trees as well as flowers buds like daffodils and crocuses have a natural anti-freeze substance that protects them.
    Cold is really ever a problem in the spring after a few warm days. If the weather turns cold again, then the leaves and flowers can be damaged.
    Stay warm
