In this week’s Tuesday Treasures, I’ve taken a series of photos from the garden last week, during a cold snap, when the frost formed slightly differently so that the ice crystals were larger than usual. So I grabbed my camera and went outside…

Beautiful, Sarah. Its never cold enough where I live to see this kind of frost. It makes the plants look like jewels!
Yes, it was certainly beautiful. My admiration was tempered by the fact that it was flippin’ cold, and there’s always the risk of losing plants when it gets that freezy…
It’s been some time since I saw some visible frost on trees and bushes, but this very morning it did make its appearance due to a particularly cold night after a foggy day, although I could not find anything worthy of admiration as the subject you shared with your pictures 🙂
Yes – we do get a number of frosts during the winter, but this particular one was exceptional. Which was why I grabbed the camera…
How pretty! And I think we have one of the plants that you do in one of our flower beds! It’s the one that looks like oak leaves – 5th picture from the top. I’m not the flower person here so I can’t remember what it’s called but we have quite a bit of it. Funny that a plant that flourishes in the UK can also flourish in Alabama. Talk about a versatile plant!
Thank you, Katherine. Yes, it’s a foliage plant called heuchera – and you might well have some growing in your garden as they come from the States! They are some of my favourite plants as they come in such a different range of colours. And you’re right… they are tough. They’ll cope with our winters, but they also deal with hot dry weather, too.
Is that a picture of a spiderweb covered in frost? If so that’s like the coolest thing I’ve ever seen! Beautiful pictures here!
Thank you, Mogsy! Yes, it is a spiderweb! And I was surprised to see it, too. In Autumn, I regularly see webs in the garden glittering with dew, but I don’t often see them covered in frost…
These are gorgeous photos; sure lucky you didn’t miss that frost!
Thank you, Becky. I was very glad I managed to catch the frost before it melted, too:)).
I love your pictures! Thanks for sharing them with us, I hope you’ll take some more, they look really great 😀
Thank you, Silvia. I do post a photo blog most Tuesdays these days. But I’m a strictly point and snap photographer – nothing fancy…
Beautiful pictures, frost really brings out cobwebs, they look magical!
It really does! I’m regretting now that I didn’t take more closeups of it.
I was also wondering if that was a spider web – I couldn’t quite figure it out or thought my eyes were playing tricks. How cool.
Lynn 😀
Beautiful!!
Oh, these are WONDERFUL! We had some beautiful days of hoarfrost in…late December, I want to say. Or was it January? All a blur, lol. 🙂 But you have the perfect color balance here. LOVE it!
Thank you, Jean:)). It was sheer luck, really – I’d nicked out to put the washing on and noticed the frost. So grabbed my camera…
