Mix dry ingredients together.
Cut the butter into five pieces and cut into dry ingredients until crumbly.
Mix sour cream and egg yolk together, and mix with dry ingredients until all ingredients are combined. Dough will be sticky.
Turn dough out onto a floured surface and sprinkle blossoms on top.
Knead lightly (only about 10 times) to mix flowers in.
Pat out into a square about ¾ inch thick.
Cut into 4 squares, and cut each square diagonally to make 8 scones.
