Conditions must be just right for frost flowers to form. Not many people have the rare blessing to see them.

There must be moisture in unfrozen ground, air temp below freezing, and the right kind of hollow-stem plant. I am sure that 'no 2 of them are alike!'

I have never heard of "frost flowers" or seen anything like them before.
Very unusual.
Thank you for the post and the information.
