Artist's Description
Christmas Eve dawned crisp and clear but a couple of hours later a heavy fog rolled in and a hoar frost began to form, magically transforming plants like these dried wild teasel flowers. This plant dies back completely each winter and reproduction is entirely by seed. There are more than 300 seeds in this cluster alone. Dipsacus fullonum, also called Fuller's teasel, is an invasive plant, often considered weed but also welcomed by many; it has long been used as a weaver's comb and the dried bracts seen here attract the European goldfinch and are used in floral arrangements. Frost like this is also called a white frost or hoarfrost; it is a coating of ice crystals formed by the sublimation of water vapor. Photo taken in Papillion, Nebraska.
