Album Description:

Frost 'flowers' form when Spring is underway and there is a sudden drop to below freezing. The stems of plants split & the frozen sap squeezes out in curls of frost. Lantana is the plant that does this for me. Our coldest temp this Winter was 16F.

  • Hi Pat, This is a very unusual occurance which is new to me, but exceedingly beautiful, and you have captured it with great skill. Love the 'frost portraits' at the end too. great album, Sheila.
