We did get measurable snow in Denver on May 21 in 2019. Average date is April 28. Thankfully, the spring snows melt pretty quickly but it can stay cold for a long time. Our average last frost is May 4. The wise person doesn't plant anything until Mother's Day or even a week later.
Curiously, I was in Pennsylvania (Stroudsburg) on May 11, 2015. There was a blizzard of blossoms from the trees and a blizzard of snow that I missed in Denver.
