A. J. Winkler says, "To the casual observer the opening of a grape flower may seem to be very different from that of most other flowers, but the difference is not great."
I say, the Syrah vines are having a fine old time; flowers, corolla, pedicel, anther, pistil, filament, nectary and calyptra - the whole bloomin' lot.

NHW: What lesson?
ALW: It's slowing things down considerably, but it is still warmer here than Bordeaux :)
Brevity!
NHW: I strive to be brief :)
