Ice Flowers

I was at a friend's house last night and he was showing pictures he took that morning at first light in Rockwoods Reservation of ice formations that had formed on particular plant stems on north facing slopes. The formations were small, some looked like leaves, some looked like shells, and some looked like nothing else. We joked that they were little ice flowers; apparently he isn't the only one to have spotted them:
